There was a soft carpet under her and she didn't feel that it was stiff at all. She didn't realize that Adam was so considerate before.
"How long have you waited?" Tracey asked softly.
"If I said that I have waited for more than ten years, do you believe it?" Adam leaned to Tracey's side and looked at her. With the dim light of stars above her head, she could vaguely see his outline.
Even if she couldn't see it carefully, she could imagine how gentle his eyes were when he said this.
"I don't believe it." She replied directly. She was still a child more than a decade ago.
Adam gently rubbed her cheek and said, "I know right, you're such a heartless woman. You've forgotten everything."
"Hmm?" Tracey blinked at him.
"During the days when we were on the sea, we used to lie on the deck together," Adam reminded.
Tracey thought about it carefully, and something gradually came to her mind.
For Tracey, the days on the sea were boring. Even if everything was fresh at the beginning, they all turned boring after a long cruise.
Every day there was the same view, and she was tired of it. Until a young man in white appeared in her life, she felt that the boring days became lively.
Because there were a lot of things in his head, he played with her in various ways every day. One night, when they played tiredly, they lay on the deck barefoot together.
"Brother, look at the starry sky tonight, it's so beautiful. Such beautiful scenery can only be seen in the sea. When we go home, we can't see it anymore."
They leaned their heads against each other and looked at the vast night sky. The young man asked softly, "Does little bunny like stars?"
"Yes, it's rare to see stars like that." Although Tracey was young, she knew stars were blocked by the thick mist every night above the city she lived in.
"In fact, besides in the sea, we can also see such a beautiful sky in the deep mountains." The young man said.
"Are there a lot of tigers and bears living there?"
Hearing the little girl's naive words, the teenager couldn't help laughing and said, "It's not as scary as you think. It's very beautiful there."
"From what you say, you have been there. What does it look like?" Tracey was very curious.
"In the deep mountains, green trees made shades and the air is fresh. There was no pollution. Birds are singing every day and you can smell the fragrance of flowers and hear the brook gurgling..." The young man drew a beautiful picture for her.
"Wow, the mountains are so beautiful. It must be like what was shown in the cartoon, full of all kinds of flowers and animals, including squirrels and birds, bees and butterflies..."
When the teenager heard the girl's exclamation, he smiled. In the little girl's world, everything was so pure and simple.
There was nothing but happiness in their world. It was so good to see she live such a happy life all the time. She would always be the little princess.
"You are right, there are a lot of cute animals." He agreed.
Tracey rolled over and stood up. "Brother, when I grow up, take me to the mountains. Let’s lie in the flowers and look at the stars, okay?"
"Okay."
