Chapter 1247


    Brad was excited.


    It was his first outing with his mom, so he looked around with great interest.


    Eileen''s eyes were full of sadness. The wind couldn''t blow it away, and the water couldn''t dissolve it.


    Brad was young. He didn''t notice that much and didn''t pay attention to these things.


    All he knew in his heart was that it was his first outing with his mom, which made him very happy.


    Through the window of the bus, she looked out at the scenery but wasn''t very happy. The canyon


    was deep. Eileen, who had a crippled leg, walked slowly. Brad, curious but obedient, didn''t run


    away by himself and followed her all the time.


    The steps were high, long and a little steep.


    It was difficult for her to walk because of the narrow steps and her crippled leg.


    Brad''s face was covered with sweat, "Mom, I''ll carry the backpack."


    Eileen shook her head and said, "It''s heavy. Mom can carry it."


    "I''m eight years old. I''m a boy. I can carry i t. Mom, you must believe me."


    Although Brad''s face looked young, he was stubborn.


    Eileen had no choice but to hand him the backpack.


    Brad happily put the backpack on his back and said, "Mom, I''m old enough to take care of you now.”


    Eileen smiled.


    There was some moss on the slippery steps. With her crippled leg, it was difficult for her to go down


    the steps.


    There were a lot of people passing by. From time to time, some people would look at her body and


    crippled foot.


    Eileen pulled her leg back. She stopped and covered her crippled foot.


    Brad looked back.


    He wiped the sweat from his brow with his hand. Picking up a stick from the ground, h e held it out


    in front of Eileen and said, " Catch it, Mom. I''ll pull you."


    She said, "Okay." The more thoughtful children were, the more heartbroken people felt for them.


    It was easier for her to walk with the stick. She walked step by step.


    Brad was very patient and walked very slowly. He looked back at her every now and then for fear


    she would fall.


    "Mom, walk slowly. No hurry. If you walk sideways, you won’t fall."


    Eileen was very relieved.


    She was so lucky to have such a thoughtful son.


    After a long walk, they came to the first scenic spot, Rain Cave, which was beautifully named.


    Outside it was a mossy cliff. The water fell from the cliff, forming a pool and flowing into a little


    stream, but the path along the stream was very difficult to walk.


    Eileen didn''t go in and waited for Brad outside.


    She was anxious as she waited.


    She was afraid that he might be abducted o r fall.

    But luckily, Brad came out in no time.


    At noon, they went on after eating mushroom soup and pizza for lunch.


    Along their way, the clear waterfalls and water flow were beautiful.


    Brad looked excited and said, "Mom, I have never been to such a beautiful ce."


    Eileen felt sorrowful when she heard these words.


    She never took Brad anywhere fun because she would get teased for her crippled leg.


    And Luke would never take him for an outing.


    She had been trying to be nice to him, but she still owed him.


    He was very naughty. asionally he would scoop up a handful of water and ssh it on her face,


    giggling.


    Eileen smiled and let him do what he wanted to do.


    It was all about him today, and she would b e happy as long as he was having fun.


    The scenery of the canyon was just right at this time. Green leaves, waterfalls, water currents and


    bird calls, all made them feel happy.


    But Eileen was very unhappy. It would soon be three o ''clock in the afternoon.
