[Lin Ling still felt bad, even with the encouragement coming from the albino. With him feeling down he just ended up sulking while sitting on top of Lu Jiang's shoulders]

It's not your fault. Some adults can be bad and take us away from the people we love... [he tried to explain to the kid while also texting who he thought was his auntie.]

I didn't want to worry auntie... i'm sorry.. [The chipper mood the little one was in vanished in an instant, replaced with a feeling of guilt]

Nice ꥟ ||Lu Jiang@light_paragonMay 8

Hmmm... I think it can look like she's upset, but that's just because she was worried. No-one knew where you were.

[Lin Ling was disappointed by the lack of cool flying he saw the older one being able to do. But he supposes this is okay for now too. Next time!] Say, Mr. Teddy? Do you think auntie will be mad I was gone for so long..?

Nice ꥟ ||Lu Jiang@light_paragonMay 8

Ouch... [yeah, the hair pulling hurt, but the important thing was that the kid was secure on his shoulders.] I'm afraid I can't "fly us away" but still, hold tight. [at least he could run a little, taking care of not making themselves fall.]

[Lin Ling let out a bright laugh when he was picked up and immediately held onto Lu Jiang which resulted in a bit of hair pulling] Up up! Fly us Mr. Teddy! [For the boy it felt like his worries from before washed away entirely, happily replaced with the joy of having company]

Nice ꥟ ||Lu Jiang@light_paragonMay 7

Pfttt, pretty eyes, huh? Well, that compliment has earned you a ride! [honestly, that was just an excuse to grab the kid and sit him on his shoulders. To be honest, Lu Jiang was starting to feel bad for making a malnourished kid walk that long of a distance.]

You're definitely Mr. Teddy! I'd recognize those pretty eyes always! Mama said the eyes are the window to the soul :0 [He was still tugging Lu Jiang with him, happy to finally have someone to talk to]

Nice ꥟ ||Lu Jiang@light_paragonMay 6

Uhm... I think you're mistaking me for someone else... [y el, te took Lin Ling's hand and started waking towards the campsite. They'd be safe once they'd get there.]

Although my reasonings and clues weren't all correct, I accept having made the right conclusion~

[He nodded eagerly, his big eyes staring right at Lu Jiang's. With the promise of cookies did Lin Ling then grab the albino's top to tuck at it.] Faster Mr Teddy! I'm starviinng :c And I miss auntie....

Nice ꥟ ||Lu Jiang@light_paragonMay 6

[Lu Jiang knelt in front of the kid. He once heard the it was important to talk to kids at their eye level so he applied it every time he was with a child.] I brought you 3 packs of cookies and a lot of sandwiches. So, will you go back with me? We can go look for your auntie

[That seemed to excite the kid. Hearing the word food made his stomach rumble almost immediately.] What did you bring?? Please tell me you got cookies! I bet it's cookies :3

Nice ꥟ ||Lu Jiang@light_paragonMay 6

Mr Teddy??? [was this one of those cases were someone knew his older self?? Well, this was no time to think about it, he needed to take the kid away from him before the kidnapper could come back. So, as friendly and lovingly as he could, he placed his hand on the kid's shoulder

[Lin Ling turned his head to see the albino standing there. With a bright smile the kid jumped off the bench with a bright smile and ran over to hug Lu Jiang.] Mr. Teddy! You came!

Nice ꥟ ||Lu Jiang@light_paragonMay 5

[it took him a few minutes of running to find the exact location if where the kid was, but he felt such a overwhelming relief when he saw the kid sitting on the bench alone. The little kid looked a bit dirty but unharmed. It was the best news Lu Jiang could have received.]

𝙇𝙞𝙣 𝙇𝙞𝙣𝙜@CommonerLinLingMay 6

[He jumped up and down before hugging the albino's legs tightly. Relief washed over him when he saw the familiar face, even if he didn't quite understand the feeling.] You look so much younger :0 Did you change your hair? :3

📱: [Okay :0 One moment :3] [With that the kid put down the phone and walked to the door to slowly open it. Then he went ahead and sat down at a nearby bench, just waiting.]

Nice ꥟ ||Lu Jiang@light_paragonMay 4

📱: [is the door closed? Can you go and meet me outside from where you are?]

[The little boy was currently still sat near the hut as he didn't know where to go without getting lost. He has thought about it, walking away, but the promise of seeing his mom was enough to keep him around.]

[A a boy with a soft yellow hoodie hovering his head goes down the bus with the rest of the tourists and people who decided they were tired of their city lives. It was such a happy coincidence that the kid's location was so near to a vacation spot that had direct transportation

[Still, it was getting a bit cold and he doesn't have any spare clothes. So instead he wrapped himself around one of the dusty and worn blankets he found within the hut. It was a small comfort as he munched on one of the chocolate bars the stranger gave him]
