Is that what I think it is? Yes!It is. It's home!Oh!! I see my mom, and the King and Queen. They've probably come to see the items we have found.
When I look at the captain, he is red with excitement, I thought that he was going to blow up any second!!
Me and Sancho were the first to say something. The king and queen told the soldiers to bring the barrel. The crew looked as they were solving a puzzling riddle.
As they brought the barrel up, I immediately knew what it was! I told the captain and he piped in excitement!!! The crew rushed to the barrel and they pulled out some letters from me and the captain!
I took my letters and rushed ahead to show my mom! She said,” Oh Pedro, I missed you so much!” I hugged my mom as long as I could, and tears sprang from our eyes. She wiped her eyes and she told me to introduce her to the king and queen!
I went over to the King and Queen, and I introduced my mother to them. The king and queen smile politely and said “Hi, It is a pleasure to meet you!”
My mom just about fainted! I went over to Christopher Columbus and he told my mother that I've been very useful and I've been warning the crew and himself when danger arrives.
My mother said it is nice to know that my son has been very helpful at sea!” Speaking of the sea, said Captain Columbus, “Your son is very honest, especially when he sunk the Santa Maria!”
I felt a little uneasiness come to me when he mentioned that, but, I told myself that is only a joke but I couldn't help blurting out!! I had said “I did not sink the Santa Maria on purpose!!!”
Everyone stared at me, even the king and queen. I apologized and went over to Sancho.
He told me that I was brave and intelligent even when we were in a crisis! I said “Thank you!” and went over to talk to my mother. I told her about the journey and about the Native Americans. Later I thought that I shouldn't have told her about that part.
The king and queen started to sing a song and we all joined in. It was called “The Return of the Ship” this is how the song goes:
The ships have returned
I was hoping for the return, I now see The praise the honesty I know now how important people are….
The song goes on and on but the song is very wonderful. My mom prays me and so did the captain and Shanco. I went to find her home so I can sleep in but, my mom told me to stay awake I asked her why but, she said all in good times I wonder what that could mean but, I decided that there was nothing to worry about .
I went downstairs play a game so I can keep myself awake. I kept hearing with whispers so I went outside and I saw the Santa Maria I thought I was dreaming but it was real. I got outside and went to get the captain! I found him and I told him that I saw the Santa Maria and of course he didn't believe me!
I went back to my mother and I fell asleep so I couldn't worry about the dreams I had about things like seeing the Santa Maria!
When I woke up I went to the window sill and looked out to the open blue. As my mother joined me, I told her that I didn't want to go out on the blue, surprisingly, she told me to go on another voyage I told her no, but, she had convinced me into going on another trip to the open blue sea and, from then on, I decided to go on many voyages.
