86 Down in the Dunes

The next day, Lina sat on the floor of her hotel room beside the huge windows.

She rummaged through her clothes, searching through her old things and the many new pieces she had accumulated.

She settled on a pair of dark green khakis and a loose white t-shirt, and a zipper hoody just incase the desert was cold during the winter months.

Lina helped Julie get dressed in a casual pair of jeans and a sweatshirt.

They had been traveling for over a month now and Lina and Julie had a little routine going.

Usually every morning after they both freshened up in the bathroom, Julie would get dressed and Lina would help fix her hair.

Today Lina sat on the bed, crossed legged brushing Julie's long silky black hair into a high ponytail.

"That should be good. You don't want your hair to get in your eyes during the trip."

"Are you girls ready?" William asked swinging the door open unexpectedly.
