Chapter 3 - Plans

Two days after the last dream got Karol all hype up by her successful encounter with the wolf as her determination didn't disappoint her.

The whole situation makes her smile like a maniac for few days, it was the first time where they interact more than just staring at each other.

It's day 4 since she dreams about the wolf and their last encounter where she prayed for a peaceful night without any dreams interruptions has been answered.

At first, she ignored it because probably it's just her imagination but on the 4th day it makes her think about it more than she would.

The scene was playing at the back of her head and her university's work keeps on piling up making her stressed out.

As she keeps on having a non-dream sleeps she kinda feels empty like something is not right or something isn't complete.

It's like her soul felt empty as if she is just an empty vessel without her host thus making her mood easily irritated and because of that, she was very moody the whole time.

'I really hate this situation it makes me feel so powerless of my own situation and my own life now I kinda miss those times where I constantly dream of the huge majestic wolf' said Karol to herself as she cradles her head feeling lost.

Just then her sister barge into the study room "Yo sissy, do you want to go on a short vacation with me?".

"When? Where? And why all of the sudden?" asked Karol looking confused as she changes her position and rested her chin on her hands.

"Ermm, I don't know. I don't have any specific place in mind. I just thought you know let's leave the country and have free or away from this concrete jungle of us" said Sharon looking excited.

"Okay then ermm just the two of us or with mummy daddy?" asked Karol still in a confused state.

"Then let's do a family trip how's that?" ask Sharon while smiling at Karol who's looking like a zombie.

"Sure why not since I need some relax time," said Karol as she smiles and agrees with her sister while slowly closed her laptop.

"Okay set then I'll arrange our transportation and hotels," said Sharon as she pitches her idea while looking at her sister.

"Brilliant idea" reply Karol as she lay her head down on top of her laptop.

"Okay then, I'll search for a good place and then we'll go there and oh yea we need to tell mummy daddy about this tonight or do you want to wait until I've searched everything?" asked Sharon as she tilted her head.

"Let's tell them later at dinner time so they'll be ready for this trip plus they need like less than a month or so for this trip to happen since because they kinda need to apply travel leaves and etc" reply Karol as she lifts her head up, opens her laptop and begins to types away.

With that Sharon exit from the study room without closing the door making Karol sign deeply at the situation.

It was almost the end of the dinner when Sharon slip her idea of the family's trip.

"Mummy daddy do you wanna go on a family trip with us?" asked Sharon as she scoops some mixed vegetables into her own plate.

"When?" asked daddy while chewing his food.

"On mummy's birthday which is on the 15th August. It's been awhile since we do a spontaneous trip plus I know Karol hate to celebrate her birthday so why not we get like 3 weeks' vacation duration?" said Sharon as she eats her rice with mix vegetable.

"Sure, why not" support mummy as she smiles at her daughters.

"So we'll go on the 15th August and return back on the 4th Sept?" asked Karol as she looked at Sharon while chewing.

"Yes, we'll go on mummy's birthday and celebrate there since we all know you well Karol that you really hate the idea of celebrating your birthday so we celebrate it by travel around. At first, I want to make it a 2 weeks trip which is fly on the 15th August and return on both of your birthdays like a sandwich but then I bet we won't have any fun so why not 3 weeks" said Sharon as she laughs softly at her lame joke in which her dad joins her that's accompanied by their mother softly giggles as she shakes her head.

"Tell me again why do I belong to this family," said Karol as she looks at her mummy as she softly giggles.

The night ends as the family laughing and having their family bonding time with each other as always before head towards their own bedroom.

Everyone was lounging around in their own room after their family bonding time, few minutes after that Karol decided to lounge with her sister so she heads to her sister's room and knocks before entering.

"Sissy, it's me. Can I come in?" ask Karol as she still standing outside of her sister's bedroom.

"Come in" reply Sharon as she looks at her phone while lying down on her bed.

"What are you doing?" ask Karol as she walks into the bedroom and sits next to her sister.

"Searching for places for us to visit on our 3 weeks' trip" replies Sharon as she still focusing on her phone.

"Then let me search a good place with you," said Karol as she takes Sharon's iPad that was at her side table.

"How's your MBA? Is it harder than you expected?" asked Sharon.

"Not that hard since I know the basics like it's the back of my palm plus it's almost like what I currently do but if you compare to my other study then yes, definitely a little harder than my degree," said Karol as she scrolls down the iPad.

"Only if I didn't take a year off from my education path I'll be finishing my MBA at the age of 23, not 24" add Karol as she still searching for the perfect location.

"Baby girl, we all know and you yourself know that you needed that year off so don't be harsh on yourself," said Sharon as she looks at Karol who's looking indifferent while looking at the iPad.

"Hmm" reply Karol as Sharon look at her intensely.

"What?!" asked Karol as she looks at her sister.

"Is there something on my face?" add Karol trying to distract her sister into a new conversation.

"Yes, there is," said Sharon as she pointed at Karol.

"Your ugliness is on your face" add Sharon as she laughing hard earning a pillow fight from Karol.

"You are 4 years older than I am but still act like a kid," said Karol as she continuously hit her sister using the pillow.

"Okay, okay. Peace?" said Sharon as she runs out of breath.

"Peace" reply Karol while halting her pillow midair taking a breath.

"Let's sleep now, I need to wake up early and you need to go to your university too," said Sharon while adjusting her pillows.

"Okay let's sleep now, goodnight sissy. Love you" said Karol as she makes herself comfortable sleeping next to Sharon.

"Goodnight baby girl, love you too" reply Sharon as she closes the lights.
