✧Extra Chapter: Where the Sky Meets the Sea✧ 13-year-old Veronika grinned happily as the cool ocean waves lapped against her bare ankles. It felt so fresh and cold. The vivid sunset cast shimmering reflections on the water and fluffy clouds dotted the horizon. She didn't even know something this beautiful existed. "So you're telling me you've never been to the ocean before?!" Skye exclaimed as another wave crashed into the two of them. "Not even once?" "Nope." Veronika closed her eyes, listening to the sound of the waves, "I am glad I got to see it for the first time with you though." And she smiled at Skye. Skye wrapped her arms around her friend and they stood like that, embracing, while the waves rose and fell around them. The small sliver of sun sunk lower into the horizon, and Veronika couldn't think of a better way for the day to end.
