Memory Slowly Regained (9)

"What are you doing?" she asked in a soft voice.2

The little boy lifted his head. His handsome face looked happily surprised as he asked, "Xiaoxiao, how did you know I was here?"

"Hehe, I guessed it! What are you doing?" The little girl craned her neck and looked at what was in front of him. However, there was nothing there other than grass.

Could he be plucking the grass?

But what was so fun about grass?

The little girl blinked her large eyes uncomprehendingly.

The little boy's gaze was mysterious. "I can't tell you that. I'll give it to you once I find it."

The girl's eyes lit up. "Eh! You're gifting it to me?"

The little boy realized that he had exposed himself. "Aiyoh, can you pretend that you don't know? We'll talk about it after I find it."

"No! What is it? Since you're going to give it to me just tell me." The little girl's curiosity was piqued. Her cute little arms wrapped around his and shook him cutely.

Helpless, the little boy said, "Okay, okay, I'll tell you."

He pointed to the grass in front and said, "I'm looking for a four-leaf clover."

"Four-leaf clover? What's that? Can it be eaten?" The little girl asked as she touched her fingers to her touch, looking like a little glutton.

The little boy laughed, amused. He shook his head and said, "You're so dumb. Of course it can't be eaten. You're not a little lamb. I saw on TV that if you find this four-leaf clover, you can make a wish and it will come true."

"Wow! It's that powerful? Can it grant any wish?" the little girl asked delightedly, her little fingers searching the ground.

"Where is it? Where is the four-leaf clover? I want to look for it too. What does it look like?"

The little boy picked a three-leaf clover and showed it to her. "It looks like this, but the four-leaf clover has four leaves and this only has three leaves, so it doesn't count. Only one with four leaves is a four-leaf clover."

"Got it! I'll look for it with you then!" the little girl beamed as she said. She started to pick the grass, trying to find a four-leaf clover.

The little boy stopped her hurriedly. "You can't do that!"

The little girl's eyes flashed with innocence. "What did I do wrong?"

The little boy said, "You can't pick the other grass. It's not good. Let's spot the four-leaf clover before picking it."

"Oh, got it!" The little girl nodded as she answered. Imitating him, she squatted down low, her little pink and chubby cheeks almost touching the grass.

The pair searched for an indeterminate length of time. They still couldn't find any when the sun started to set.

The little girl was tired. Planting her butt on the ground, she said, "I'm so tired. Why can't we find any?"

The little boy sat by her side, his handsome face a little dejected. "The TV said that four-leaf clovers are very hard to find and can only be found if it is destined by fate."

"Oh, I see. Should we stop trying to find it since it's so hard to find? I'm hungry…" The little girl pursed her lips. Even though she really wanted to find four-leaf clovers to make wishes— she had many, many things she wanted to wish for— she was now hungry. Her desire for food took priority, and thus the only thing she thought about was eating.

The little boy shook his head, his handsome face determined as he said, "I want to keep looking. You can go and eat. I'll look for it myself."
