Olivia shook her head. "We should keep things simple and just stay on the ship."
Logan hesitated before saying, "Ms. Fordham, may I ask why you're taking such a risk just to get back to Arlandia?
"You aren't exactly in the best of health, and I heard you don't have any relatives there. Why would you want to go back?"
"Yeah. I have some things I need to do."
Olivia was tight-lipped. She didn't reveal anything to him. Logan respected that and didn't ask any more questions.
"You should get some rest, then."
It would take around half a day for the ship to dock, resupply, and get maintenance work done. Olivia didn't even get off the ship. She didn't even leave her room.
She marked her calendar with a red pen. She was getting closer to Aldenvine. She would be able to see her children after some more time.
After a while, a sailor came to update her about the situation.
"Ms. Fordham, I'm sorry. There's some problem with the ship. Technicians are looking into it, but we won't be able to set sail today."
"How long would repairs be?"
"If everything goes well, we can finish in a day. If not, it might take two to three days.
"Everyone is working overtime to get the ship running. The captain instructed me to update you about this.
"If you're bored, you can take a look around the island."
"Okay. Thanks for letting me know."
Olivia wasn't really interested in going on the island. She replied, "Thanks for the invitation, but I don't feel like going to the island."
"Alright. The captain and some of the other men will be going to the tavern for some drinks. You can call us if you need anything."
"Will do."
The night seemed more peaceful at the dock. There weren't any roaring waves. Olivia was sitting on the deck.
