Although she knew he was pretending, what he said was right.
Then she would do as he wished.
Eileen nodded and agreed.
Now she still had the strength to move. She might not even be able to walk as timed passed.
Brad was always understanding and sensible. Her heart ached as she heard what he had just said.
He was so young but already knew the ways of the world. How could she not feel sad for him?
She went to prepare things.
Luke secretly high-fived Brad without making a sound!
Eileen and Brad sat in the back seat.
Luke drove towards the canyon.
Brad wasn’t interested in it since he had gone to a canyon before.
He was not as excited as the first time.
Lying in Eileen's arms, he was drowsy.
He couldn’t open his eyes.
Luke saw this in the mirror.
He involuntarily curved his thin lips with joy.
Eileen didn't have much interest either.
Through the window, she quietly watched the surrounding scenery moving backward.
She didn’t do anything else, looking distant.
Among the three people, only Luke was in a good mood.
An hour later, they arrived at the canyon.
Brad was thoughtful. He took the backpack from Eileen and put it on his back.
Then the three of them walked up the stairs in the canyon.
