Chapter 112 Fortune Teller (2/2)
”Cecilia, what a beautiful name.” I said.
”Are you lost?” William asked and Cecilia nodded cutely.
”Were you with your parents? Do you know where you last saw them?” William kneeled down and asked gently.
”Mommy and I were at the plaza. I was playing around when I saw a butterfly and started to chase after it. But I got lost after.” Cecilia explained.
”Hmm I undertstand.” William said. ”Then let's go back to the plaza. Maybe your mommy is searching for you there.”
William extended his arm to Cecilia. She hesitated a bit, looking pretty shy. But then she put her little hands on William's big sturdy hands.
”Then let's go little miss.” William smiled and pulled Cecilia up and carried her on his shoulders.
”Whoa, careful.” I said in surprise.
Cecila held to William's head for support.
”With you up there, you can find your mommy.” William explained. Cecilia nodded in fascination.
William and I walked towards the plaza side by side, with Cecilia sitting on William's shoulders. Once we got to a crowded area, people were gazing at us.
”What a cute little family.” I heard someone from the crowd say.
”They are both good looking, no wonder the child is pretty.”
”They look good together.”
I felt awkward with the misunderstandings of the people around us.
”Um Will, why don't we go to the fountain.” I suggested. ”It is a well known spot. Maybe Cecilia's mother will look there.”
”Good idea.” William replied. He grabbed my hand gently and walked towards the fountain area.
Once there, we looked around. There was plenty of people. If we can't find Cecilia's mother in this crowd, we would have to take her to the authorities and have a notice for a lost child.

”Oh there, there.” Cecilia who was still in William's shoulders, pointed at the crowd excitedly. ”Mommy, mommy!”
”Cecilia!” A woman was waving at us. She walked towards us.
William put Cecilia down gently. The woman opened her arms and Cecilia ran towards her embrace.
”Oh my, Cecilia.” The woman was crying. ”Thank God you are safe.”
”Mommy, mommy, big sister and brother saved me from the bad men.” Cecilia said with a cute voice.
Cecilia's mother looked at us and bowed half her body. ”Thank you, thank you so much for finding my daughter and keeping her safe.”
”No need to thank us.” I said sincerely. ”I can't just stand by and do nothing when she was in danger.”
”Then at least let me repay you for your kindness.” Cecilia's mother insisted.
”Really no need ma'am.” I said.
”Then let me at least read your fortune for free.” Cecilia's mother said.
”Oh, you are a fortune teller?” I asked curiously.
”Yes, my stall is just around there.” Cecilia's mother pointed.
I was a little skeptical, but I wanted to try.
‘Maybe she is an Atlantian?' I thought. If so then at least I wanted to know her and try out her fortune telling.
