The Boy At The House (10)

They row and row, and soon the tree-clothed cape is beyond them and a new cape shows up, but this cape mostly consists of rocks, and almost at the end of it is a white house with two stores.
"There it is", says Richard.
Just at the end towards the water is a red little outhouse.
Everybody looks tensely towards the cape and the houses to see if there is somebody there. A man. Or a dog. But no living creature is to be seen. Except the seagulls.
"We can land there", says Richard and points to the left. "Then we can't be seen from the house."
The oar forks squeak. But the seagulls yell pretty loud too.
Finally they reach land, and they fasten the stern to a pink buoy and the front at at minimal wooden jetty that is totally gray due to weather and wind. Luke pulls in the oars and cautiously puts them on the benches.
"Shouldn't we call the police instead?" Paula says.
"Are you dumb or what? There's no phone here", says Dilan.
"Now you are dumb, says Gina.
"Sorry", says Dilan and smiles at Paula. Paula smiles back.
"What shall we do?" Luke says.
Everybody looks at each other again. They become silent for a while, nobody says anything. All seem a little unsure of what to do.
"We have to trust God. Haven't we managed through a lot of other things before?" says Daniel.
"Yes, lots of... scary things too", says Paula.
"Exactly", says Daniel.
Richard goes on land and the others follow. They throw the life jackets in the boat.
