Super Planet System Behind The Moon - Chapter 56
That afternoon, Lucas, Aidan, and Wilson were staring at Elizabeth’s computer screen. The three are really busy looking for the whereabouts of the water bender via any social media, but after a few hours of struggling, they still haven’t received any news about the water bender.
“Um…. Lucas, Aidan, Wilson…” A call rang in their ears, causing the three of them to simultaneously raise their heads and stare at Elizabeth who was standing in the doorway holding a large empty bag. This, of course, made the three of them aware that the woman was going to go shopping.
“You’re going shopping?” Aidan also asked Elizabeth, making the woman nodded her head in answer to Aidan’s question.
“Yeah… I’m going to buy some kitchen ingredients, so… It’s fine if I leave you guys here huh?” Elizabeth asked the three of them. Wilson and Aidan nodded their heads, but not Lucas. He quickly walked over to Elizabeth and said,
“Come on! I will accompany you shopping!” Lucas said to Elizabeth who of course was surprised to hear the offer, Elizabeth quickly shook her head as she said,
“No need… It’s not far after all!” Elizabeth turned down the offer Lucas made her. The man smiled and said again,
“It’s okay… Come on!” Invite Lucas again, which in the end makes Elizabeth follow the wishes of Lucas who wants to accompany her shopping at the supermarket.
…
“Is this the cereal you meant, Elizabeth?” Lucas asked Elizabeth while holding a box of cereal in his hand, Elizabeth turned to look at Lucas as well as the cereal in her hand. The woman smiled and nodded her head, then replied,
“Yeah… That cereal, thanks, Lucas!” Elizabeth said to Lucas who smiled and nodded his head in acceptance of those words,
“So… What else do you need?” Lucas asked Elizabeth again, asking the woman who might need something else. But Elizabeth shook her head because she didn’t need anything else.
“Everything we need has been bought, Lucas… We just have to pay for this at the cashier, you can wait for me outside the cashier!” Elizabeth said to Lucas who now nodded his head and then walked towards the exit from the supermarket.
Lucas looked at Elizabeth who was currently doing transactions inside, he then turned to a large TV that reported a rare phenomenon.
Latest news! A phenomenon that miraculously occurred during the drought that hit Orlando in recent months. Where a lake in Orlando which at that time receded, is now starting to fill again and even meets the needs of all its citizens, even livestock to agriculture. This thing that happened certainly made all the citizens of Orlando feel very happy because this summer was different from the previous summers.
When he saw the news, Lucas frowned, as he continued to stare at the tv screen in the shopping center.
“Lucas?” And a call from Elizabeth, made Lucas immediately turned to look at her and smiled happily. Elizabeth, of course, was confused by the smile that Lucas suddenly gave her. Which finally made Elizabeth ask,
“Are you all right, Lucas?” Elizabeth asked, Lucas, nodded his head then said,
” Lizbeth! Now I know where the water bender is!” That’s what Lucas said to Elizabeth, which of course made Elizabeth surprised and confused to hear it.
“You found it, Lucas?” Elizabeth asked Lucas who was standing beside her. Lucas nodded his head and pointed at the big TV which was broadcasting the same news as before, the news about Orlando. Elizabeth who also saw the news finally nodded her head happily, because at least Lucas had figured out the possibility of where the water bender was.
“Alright, then we should head home and tell Aidan and Wilson about this.” Said Elizabeth who invited Lucas to immediately go home. Lucas also agreed to this and immediately nodded, then he took the initiative to bring all the groceries that Elizabeth had brought.
…
“What? You found it?! Where is he?!” Wilson asked Lucas, who was currently standing in front of him and Aidan.
Lucas nodded his head confidently, saying “I heard if there was a miracle that happened in Orlando, the river water was full again, and I think it all has something to do with this water bender we’re looking for.” Lucas said, explaining to Wilson and Aidan why he was so sure and how he knew it.
While not necessarily true, the phrase managed to make Wilson nod his head, and Aidan jumped out of his chair delighted to hear that.
“So, when are we going there to look for him?” Wilson again asked Lucas a question, making Aidan who heard it also turn to Lucas after he nodded confirming the question Wilson gave Lucas.
Lucas exhaled slowly, then nodded to reassure himself that his decision this time was the right one, “Today, right now!” Lucas answered Wilson for the question he had asked earlier, and of course, the answer made Aidan and Wilson feel surprised to hear that.
“Um… Isn’t that too rushed, Lucas?” Tanya Wilson now doubted the decision she thought was too soon to Lucas who now shook his head and then explained again,
“Then when? One thing I ask is if we postpone it, will this person still be there?” Said Lucas who then asked a question that neither Wilson nor Aidan could answer. Finally, both of them nodded their heads, confirming what Lucas said which finally made them immediately follow Lucas’ words to leave right now. What Lucas said about this water bender is also true, because they don’t always stay in one place, do they? Unless you already know where his home address is.
“Alright… Then, allow me to get ready first!” Wilson said to Lucas, which made Aidan also nod his head and then say,
“I will too, you too Lucas!” That’s what Aidan said to Lucas who was now nodding his head in response
Aidan immediately left together with Wilson, after which Lucas now exhaled and then turned to look at Elizabeth who was now smiling at Lucas, which made Lucas now walk up to her and then say,
“I thank you so much, Lizbeth!” Lucas said to Elizabeth who was now shaking her head and then said,
“No Lucas, I’m grateful that you, Aidan, and Wilson are willing to open up to me and explain everything, I’m glad to have friends like you guys accompany me in this house.” Elizabeth said to Lucas who was now giving her a sweet smile.
“Then… I have to get ready!” Lucas said goodbye to Elizabeth who again nodded her head slowly, permitting Lucas. Elizabeth also said,
“Yes… Hurry up and prepare!” Elizabeth said which made Lucas chuckle and then disappeared from his sight because he had to pack up the things he was going to bring.
…
Lucas, Aidan, and Wilson are now walking out of Elizabeth’s house, having previously said goodbye to the good girl. Elizabeth even told the three that they had to go back to the house when they found the water bender, which of course made Lucas nod his head.
Unlike when they first left, which made Lucas and Aidan have to walk a long way first, now Lucas extended his hand to Wilson and Aidan which made them shake it immediately and then the three of them disappeared in front of Elizabeth who was now smiling to accompany their journey.
Shutt!!
They appeared on a lake in the Orlando area. Which made Aidan and Wilson look around which now looked very wide.
“So… This is the Lake you’re referring to, Lucas?” Wilson asked Lucas as he looked at the entire scene in front of him. Lucas nodded his head and said,
“That’s right… There’s no mistaking it if this is the lake I saw on the news this morning.” Lucas replied to Wilson and Aidan who now made the three of them silent, busy looking around.
“So, what should we do here? Around the lakeside? And if we find someone in this area, we have to ask him by saying ‘Humm… Excuse me! Are you a waterbender?’ Should we ask like that, Lucas?” Wilson asked Lucas who was now frowning, while Aidan nodded his head in agreement with the idea.
“That’s a pretty good idea! How about we give it a try?” Said Aidan who then gave a question to Lucas and Wilson, which made Wilson immediately turned his head to look at Aidan and then said,
“That’s a stupid and Ridiculous idea! Aidan!” Wilson said to Aidan who now just shrugged his shoulders and didn’t mind it, while Lucas who understood and didn’t talk much and exhaled, then explained to the two men,
“Then what are you going to do? Do you have any better ideas than this, Wilson?” A question that was said by Lucas to Wilson at that time left Wilson speechless and silent to find another more reasonable way for them to do it at this time.
“You don’t have a good idea either, do you? If you don’t have it, then there’s no need for you to protest against me! Since I can’t do anything other than this either, that’s what we’re trying to at least look for here now!” Lucas said to Wilson with a rising tone of voice, because at that time Lucas felt very annoyed. After all, Wilson always protested all the actions and suggestions given by Lucas but himself did not give a suggestion and input even once so that it made Lucas lost.
