Maybe it was because of the light rain that saw my brows frowning for a few days, so he specially booked a travel package for Arthur and me to Sentosa, Singapore, and urged us to move forward.

I'm ashamed to say that I haven't traveled alone with Arthur since I came to this B-world. It's not that I don't want to travel with her, it's just that there has always been a tension in my heart, which conveys to me over and over again the crisis of this world, as well as the responsibilities and obligations I shoulder, so that I dare not relax at all.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shake my head, opened the baffle on the plane window, and looked out at the white clouds through the glass window.

The world is still so beautiful, and all of it is a comfort that we have never experienced on a small island. Whether it's the end or the destruction, if we don't really experience anything, and this is the real end, I think I'll regret it for the rest of my life, right?

I glanced at Arthur beside me, who was excitedly looking at a book about Sentosa, Singapore, and writing a guide with her pen.

Arthur's afterglow caught a glimpse of me, and she squeezed towards me with a book, "Char, you see, Sentosa Island we are going to is known as the most charming resort island in Singapore. Spread over an area of 390 hectares, it is known as the 'Jewel of Joy' with a variety of recreational facilities and leisure activities. In Malay, 'Sentosa' means peace and quiet. Its main attractions are these Siloso Beach, Dragon Road, Kusu Island, ......"

Arthur was there to describe the rides on Sentosa to me, and I listened to everything she had to say with a smile. Five hours is not too short, not too long, and time passed quickly in Arthur's description and in our short nap.

When we opened our eyes, the announcement on the plane was already announcing that we were about to land and told us to put away the small table. We followed the flight attendant's instructions to put away the small table, and after about ten minutes, the plane slowly landed on the soil of Singapore.

We, who have never been abroad, come to this new territory like a group of happy children, and everything we see is so new.

Arthur pulled her luggage and raced all the way to Singapore's Changi International Airport, while I followed her to escort her.

Don't say it, the travel package that Xiaoyu prepared for us is really good. As soon as we left the gate of the airport, we were greeted by a luxury car parked at the door, and there was a professional Chinese guide on the car for us.

The driver first took off his hat, said a warm welcome, and then drove steadily in the direction of "Sentosa".

I remember Arthur telling me on the plane that getting from the main island of Singapore to Sentosa Island is very easy and fast, and there are many routes to choose from. There are five ways to get to the island: cable car, ferry, bus, MRT (subway) and taxi. And we chose the fifth way, the taxi in the travel package arranged by Xiaoyu.

The driver drove slowly on the way to Sentosa, giving us the privilege of enjoying the beautiful scenery of Singapore along the way. The blue sky here is picturesque, the clouds here are white, the streets here are clean and tidy, and the black people here are happily playing music on the streets......

Although it was only a short journey, it left an indelible first impression in the hearts of Arthur and me—beauty and joy, freedom and yearning.

The car stopped in front of the hotel in Sentosa, we quickly checked into the room, went up to put our luggage, and then were led by our guide to one of the more famous restaurants in Sentosa, where we had chilli crab and chicken rice, and a local bandung drink.

Speaking of this bandung drink, it is really special, it is a milky refrigerated drink mixed with rose dew, which also adds pandan leaves, sweet and refreshing, pink and tender to cool off. Arthur and I couldn't praise it.

After a hearty meal, we went to Siloso Beach, walked along the beach, browsed the boutique shops by the beach, and slowly sat on the beach, blowing the sea breeze and watching the men and women on the beach sweat and play volleyball......

"It's all islands, where it's despair, and here it's comfort." Arthur looked at them, a hint of sentimentality in her eyes.

"Yes, they have never experienced everything we experienced, but they also can't experience the joy and emotion after breaking through everything. That kind of dedication and enthusiasm for life will only really remain in the hearts of a few of us. ”

At night, we strolled along the beach with the tranquil sea breeze, and before we knew it, we had already walked far away and came to a fountain somewhere, listening to the wonderful combination of water and music, and watching our lovers laugh and dance.

Suddenly, the Merlion Tower in the distance began to shine, and the light from its eyes shot out, and it was suddenly full of colors, piercing the night sky and achieving the most beautiful night scene.

It was only at this time that I finally understood Xiaoyu's intention in choosing Sentosa for us, and indeed the night view of Sentosa is too charming, and the Merlion of Sentosa is too lovely.

Early in the morning of the second day, I went to Kusu Island under the guidance of my guide, visited the turtle pond, and paid homage to the Malay god.

Then we started our jet bikes, got on a fascinating little sailboat, climbed to the top of the tall skyscraper, and stood under the magnificent Merlion Tower. Tired of playing, we drank a little wine in a quiet small hotel, listened to a Singaporean song, and closed our eyes slightly.

In this way, we went to the underwater world for the next two days to watch pink dolphins dance; Go to Asia Village to see the customs performances of various countries; Listen to the audio-visual feast of Le Vie; Shop for the most trendy luxury goods in the concept stores of international brands on Festival Boulevard......

Saying goodbye to our guides, we boarded the plane back home. Although it was only a few days in Sentosa, we experienced joy and peace that we had never experienced before.

If one day when the world is truly peaceful, when all of us can achieve an ending where no one will die innocently, I think I will put on my camera with Arthur, look at the scenery of this world, and finally sit peacefully in the sun......

We fell asleep quietly, and in my sleep I walked with Arthur in the corners of the world, never letting go of our hands.
