Memory Slowly Regained (10)

The little girl asked curiously, "Why must you find it? Can't you do it next time?"

"Because…" The little boy looked at her. "I want to make a wish."

"What wish?" The little girl looked at him with her large eyes.

"My wish is …" The little boy paused and pursed his lips before saying, "I want you to be happy. Weren't you unhappy today? You even cried. I don't want to see you cry. I want to make a wish so you will never cry and will be happy every day."

Upon hearing this answer, the little girl beamed happily and leapt forward, wrapping her arms around his neck.

"You're so good to me!"

The little boy landed, sitting on the ground. Afraid that she would fall, he hugged her with his hands.

The little girl giggled and said to him, "I'm really happy! I'm super happy! So, we don't have to look for the four-leaf clover anymore. Let's go eat!"

Rising, she held his little hand and pulled him forward.
