I was almost drifting to sleep when I heard what sounded like an alarm somewhere faint. Then the PA system. Tina was half laying on me, one leg hooked over my waist. I listened and with the small nightlight in the room I could see the fire alarm light we had. It wasn’t going off and the harder I listened, the more I was convinced that I was half dreaming. I was exhausted mentally and physically.

“So I hear you three had some excitement?” Annette asked at the breakfast table.

“Not much,” I told her.

“It wasn’t really anything,” Tina told her, though this morning she had admitted she felt horrible for punching that lady.

“Well, as long as you two were able to get some good sleep in.”

“I’m not sure Tina had sleep—” Tina kicked me under the table, making my leg jerk up, rattling glasses and silverware of everyone within five feet, which was quite a few.

“Owwwww,” I said, rubbing my shin under the table.

“Dayee owwwie. Momma kiss?” Owen asked Tina just as she was taking a drink of water.

She sprayed it back into her plate and started coughing. Annette was sitting next to me, but she started laughing out loud, holding onto her side. I let it go on a moment, but Tina was still coughing. I got up and walked around the table behind her and pounded her on the back a couple times. She held a hand up, and I snuck a sausage link off her plate and put it on Owen’s. His sudden interest in what was vexing his mom was gone as he started devouring Elkridge Farms meat of the gods.

“Oh uh… Hi,” a voice said from across the table.

Both Tina and I looked up. She coughed a couple more times, and then wiped her mouth with a napkin.

“Sorry, wrong pipe,” Tina explained.

That was when I did a double take. The ladies had their clothes on and weren’t in bikinis. The gals from last night.

“Listen,” the lady who got boob punched started, “I want to apologize for last night, I’m really sorry.”

“You make it to your room ok?” Tina asked instead.

“We did, security helped us, then the ship’s doctor threatened to pump my stomach if I ever drank that much again. Lord, I barely remember last night. I’m really sorry, I didn’t mean to upset you, your baby, and your husband.”

“I’m sorry for the wrong room mix up,” the other one said. “I didn’t want to wear my glasses. They look stupid and I have this eye thing and can’t wear my contacts right now.”

“I—” I started but was interrupted.

“Listen, I’ve been young and had my fun times like you ladies are doing here”—they nodded— “but, this could have turned out real ugly. What if you would've got some abnormal rando who pulled you both in his room and did God knows what?” Tina asked.

They looked at each other uneasily.

“Being a lady, you have to be careful about getting that drunk and losing control like you two did last night.
