Following her hadn't been on his things to do today, but honestly he didn't have much on his list anyway. There was only so much bird chasing and squirrel hunting one could do before throwing in the towel. Besides, since finding Sara his mother has been more scarse around the Thichet. This left him to do whatever he wanted.
It also meant it was time he expanded his own search for dad. Following a pretty stranger into the sea wasn't exactly that, but it felt like a new adventure. This could be his ticket to a new destination or exactly where he has wanted to go since hearing old stories from his parents. The Lagoon.
"Hey you!" He yells from behind as his soaking wet body scrambles after her. "You forgot me." A mischievous grin spreads over his brown lips as he pulls up on her left as if they already know each other. "Where are we off to?" His eyes sparkle with curiosity. He wonders if she had noticed him back in the Thicket like he had her.
Truthfully he didn't care if she had spotted him back home. She was cute and he would make sure she learned his name.
