90 Looking for Avalon Part 3 (1/2)

”What are you going to do in the city? Will you also look for your parents?” Hani asked the young man seated beside her.

”Huh? So you're really looking for your parent's?” Wallace was looking outside through the window when the kid asked.

He realized that the kid could really be lost and looking for her relatives.

”Oh, not really. I mean, I will visit my parents there... How about you?” The girl corrected herself.

”Not really, but I'm looking for something.” Wallace nodded and smiled at her. He glanced back on the outside as he wanted to familiarize himself on the vicinity.

”Oh? Can you tell me what it could be?”

”That's a secret.”

”Hmph. OK, then. I hope you find it.”

”Thank you.”

Wallace chuckled as he hadn't really considered his lie on what to tell if someone asked what he was looking for.

But now, because of Hani, he was contemplating on what to tell once some other people asked him.

'Well, let's just say I'm on vacation.' Wallace decided on his thoughts.

The bus travelled smoothly without any accidents.

The two of them didn't sleep within the two hour trip, so Hani asked questions from time to time.

”Eh? Now you're telling me you're just going on a vacation. Why were you acting so mysterious just a while ago?” Hani couldn't help but mumble upon hearing Wallace's inconsistency.

”Haha. Sorry about that.” Wallace actually didn't mind changing his statements as he was only speaking with a child and this may even be their last meeting.

Soon, the bus arrived at the port city. He said his goodbye to Hani as the two separated. Hani waved goodbye and ran somewhere.

He proceeded to wait for the passenger ship and considered to eat on a nearby convenience store. He already had a ticket reserved ahead of time and only needed to wait for at least an hour.

Apparently, going to the island through airplane wasn't possible as there's no airport in the said island.  Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

As the boarding time approached Wallace noticed a familiar figure also waiting on the port.

He didn't approached her and only shook his head before looking for a seat to wait.

It only took 15 more minutes before the passengers were called to board the ship.

Wallace wasn't able to reserve a luxurious cabin due to time constraints and only had a chance to reserve a standard cabin where he had to share with someone else.

Anyway, the trip would be a short one as it would only take three to four hours to arrive at their destination.

Luckily, there is a good weather as well making the trip smooth. The sun was also hidden a bit by the clouds which made Wallace go out from his cabin and visit the deck.

”Beautiful...” Wallace sighed in amazement.

It has been a while since he had seen a large body of water so close to him. It must be remembered that he grew up in space and barely set foot on a land before.

The scenery of the boundless ocean glistening from the sunlight time to time was a sight to behold.

He took a moment to admire the scene before she noticed a girl approaching him.
