"I don't know but she thinks we have a problem," Lola answered and she shrugged.

Demilade said nothing in reply. He thought Bayo wasn't wrong when he said he was avoiding her and it was very obvious and He was going to try to correct that.

And they both leave the house. The boat captain was already waiting by the seashore. He was talking loudly with Bayo that sat on one of the pool chairs outside the beach house.

He paused his conversation with the boat captain and looked at the both of them.

"It's a couple days out," Bayo said looking at his friend.

Demilade just rolled his eyes and said. "We will be back." And he walked away.

"Lola have fun. Don't mind his stupid remarks."

She shakes her head in agreement. "I will. Thanks." And she followed after Demilade that was standing at the seaside watching the boat captain Mr Patrick untie the yacht from the dock.

"Good morning, Lola." The man greeted.

"Morning, sir. How is family?" She asked cheerfully.

The two engaged in small conversation before he told them the yacht was ready.

"At last." Demilade huffed under his breath. "Let's go."

Lola took off her sandal and stepped into the cold water. It sent shivers down her spine. She still hasn't gotten used to entering the water.

"Do you need any help, Lola?" Mr Patrick asked.

Demilade looked at him then he rolled his eyes. He walked over to Lola's side and carried her up in his arms. She looked bewildered but he wasn't looking at her.

He carried her over to the side of the Yacht and Mr. Patrick helped her into the boat.

"Thanks." She appreciated pulling down her dress. Demilade climbed up himself and he went past Lola going into one of the rooms and he came out with life jackets.

"Oh! I forgot to bring them out." Mr Patrick said when he saw Demilade approaching with the jackets. He wasn't used to wearing them.

Gratefully, he took one from Demilade. And Demilade also handed one to his girlfriend.

"Thanks." She thanked him and she study the jacket for a while before she put it on.

Demilade did the same and then he took a seat beside Lola. He looked at Lola's life jacket and he smiled.

"You are wearing the back at the front." He chuckles. Lola looked down at her jacket and shrugged.

"I don't even know how to wear this thing. This one is complicated." She complained with a pout and she unbuckled all the locks taking them off. And Demilade directed her on how to wear it properly. "At last." She muttered when she had worn it in the right way. "Thanks." She appreciated. He just waved it off.

The boat sailed off. Lola took some pictures with her phone. Demilade sat saying nothing just watching her display and taking pictures of herself in different styles and different positions.

"Demilade, do you want to take pictures?" She asked looking at something on her phone. It was the pictures she had snapped.

Demilade shook his head. "No, I'm good."

"You are so boring." Lola sneered and she went to sit down in her seat.

They sat in comfortable silence afterwards, with just the sound of the fuji music Mr. Patrick was playing which was coming from an Mp3 player that was laying beside him filling the silence. He also sang along with the music as he drives the boat.
