Frozen in place, she was in a daze for over ten seconds.
Ella Lacey finally calmed down and slowly began to walk, step by step, towards the expansive riverside.
At this moment.
From her line of sight, why did Waldor Jones suddenly have the urge to jump into the river?
Otherwise, why else would he take off his shoes!
"Waldor Jones, don't be impulsive!"
Ella shouted while running forward.
Waldor heard the shout, turned around, and found an arm already tugging at his shirt sleeve, pulling him with a slight pant, "Waldor, you... why do you want to jump into the river?"
"Aunt Ella?"
Waldor was surprised to see her appear, even more surprised, "I wasn't going to jump into the river?"
"You weren't? Then why did you take off your shoes?" Ella's thought process was straightforward.
Waldor awkwardly pointed to the riverbank, "I saw some shells buried in the sand, colorful and pretty, I wanted to pick them up as a gift for someone."
