It had been nine months since Una and Everett first met. Though they didn't really need a break from anything at this point, with the both of them pursuing their dreams, they decided to go on a winter trip near the mountains. That morning, Mrs. Stratton had fixed a hearty breakfast for Una. Mrs. Stratton asked, "Are tu excited for your trip, dear?" Una said, "You bet! I've never been so close to the mountains before. I can't wait to go hiking in the snow." Mrs. Stratton said, "You be careful when tu go. I've heard it can be very cold there." Una said, "Don't worry, Mother. I won't be going alone. Everett will keep me safe." Mrs. Stratton said, "I'm sure he will." Just then, the doorbell rang. Una ran to answer it. She said, "Hi, Everett!" He said, "Hi, Una. Are tu ready to go?" She said, "I'm ready. Let me grab my things." A few minutos later, she was heading out the door. She gave her mother a hug and said, "Bye, Mother. I amor you." Mrs. Stratton said, "Bye, Una. I amor tu too." She then dicho to Everett, "Take good care of her, okay?" He smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mrs. Stratton. I will." Una and Everett were soon on the road. There were so many sights to see. They made a few stops here and there. A couple of those stops were for lunch and later for dinner. They arrived at the hotel around 10:00 pm. Their room was very cozy. Una said, "I'm looking adelante, hacia adelante to our hike in the mountains tomorrow." Everett said, "So am I. Get some sleep. We've got a big día tomorrow." The two soon fell asleep in their beds. They had no idea that their día was going to be much más eventful than they could ever imagine.
