Chapter 3: Plan for Leaving
Fate has come to me, that is why I know that it time to leave. Alden 16 year old boy, has started his plan for leaving his home town, Byport. As the name has said, Byport is a place where you can travel though water easily, has many ship, and it a town that is famous for that. I have actually makes plan to go to the Riverbell before, but this is the first time I get serious that it should be enough to make real plans. I have write an important note from the book into other paper and prepare a bag that contain snack, sleeping bag, map, water, keys, money I keep, notes, the book, pen, pencil, camera, fire starter, and (old) phone. All that left is food that I will get later, and to say bye⊠that will be the hardest, but first for a plan I wish someone would help me but I just canât tell them now.
This is the plan I come so far, first I will search for the girl name Eizabella by asking people in town that they see her or not. Second I will ask her for why and how she wanted to find Riverbell. Third I will try to convince her to join with me, but that could be impossible. Fourth I will went and find more people to go with me. Fifth I will go to the Riverbell! But first thing first is to say thing to my mom and Nile, so I will go and tell her went mom ready for dinner, I wish it my favorite rice.
âAlden, the dinner ready!â after a short while my mom called. I try my best there nothing else I can do, I stand up open the door, went down stair, no costumer is here now. I seat down quietly and prepare to eat. My mom was cleaning up bottle and then she said not facing me âSo, Alden, Yesterday, no about 2 day ago I clean your room and do you know what I found.â I got really surpise by it was my mom who say that. âit was that book was it, I still remember when you show me that when our home is still alive.â My mom say and she then look at me. âGo onâ my mom said. I feel like I can trust my mom now. I then ask âMom! can you.. please..â Say this now Alden! Or never! She must have already know! âCan I go out to find Riverbell!â
My mom smile and said â I canât stop you anyway, although I am worry since the world is harsh, but it vast so there could be that Riverbell.â I got really happy that my mom accept  what am about to do âbe careful and try to find that girl Alden,  I approve you, both of youâ went my mom said both of you, I donât really understand but I know that I can and I will. I got more courage and feel that my mom support me and I will not let her down. I eat the dinner, all of it, then I go up, hug my mom, then went to my room.
I have prepare mentally and now only a good sleep will help, so I went to my bed, still have something to do but I will be back. I have decide that I will be back, it will took a long time until I could reach where Riverbellâs world is. But I have decide to not going back here until I did something that will make me be able to go to the Riverbellâs world.
The next morning arrives, I took my cloths and bag, I try to went down quietly but fall down the stair due to the bag being heavy. My mom was already down stair and Nile was there too, it seem mom has told him what happened. Nile then said âYou are a man go for it ok?â I replies âUm!â my mom took the bag and me up then she said âI have checked your bag yesterday and have arrange things and some bread in for you, let eat the breakfast first then you go!â I then smile and said âAye!â
I eat the breakfast, it was an omelet rice! I had a very good time but I must go. I pick my bag after finishing, Nile cry and shaking his hand. My mom then cry smiling and waving at me with Nile. I then walk away, thinking, the adventure begin.
