A nice sandcastle is complete-

�I�m having fun too.�There is no one to play with in the castle.�If I did anything, I would whine and cry.�

Abella grinned as Harvitz copied the frightened faces of those around her.

�Ha, I wish I could play with you every day.�

�Then you can play every day.�

Abella noticed.

�But you are an adult.�Mom said, adults are busy, so don�t bother them.�

�are you okay.�Because playing with you is the most fun.�You don�t have to do anything else, what does it matter?�

Abella�s eyes blinked prettily.

�I think you are very different from the adults I know.�

�What is different?�

�Do this, don�t do that, they don�t talk about this, they don�t bother me.�

�What about the other adults?�

�It�s not like that.�How nagging is that?�You have to be a good person, you have to handle tableware like this����.�

Havitz twisted his mustache.

�Hmm, I�ve never heard anything like that in my life, so I don�t know����.�

So, I realized the fact.

�The people who say that are because they are afraid.�Grown-ups, I see, are always terrified.�

�What are you afraid of?�

Harvits shrugged.

�Puhaha!�I don�t know.�What on earth are you trembling about in this world?�I try to go straight, as if there is only one line on an invisible cliff.�

Havitz pretended to walk on two fingers.

�When I walked around, there was no single line.�no matter where you go�is it natural�But are you pretending not to know?�

�Ugh.�They say it won�t fall.�

�Of course, if you want to play, you have to give people what they want.�But if you don�t want to play with me, you don�t have to listen.�The downside is that it�s a bit boring, but����.�

Harvits comforted Abella.

�As long as you are not afraid, you can do anything.�you grow flowers�Don�t listen to boring stories like witches.�

I didn�t understand all of Harvitz�s words, but it was the best comfort Abella had ever heard.

�huh!�I will grow flowers from today!�Thanks, mister!�

Habitz grinned, baring his teeth. JrNovels.com
