Journal of the Wandering Traveler

Dandelions are always fluttering in the wind, but a touch of color can be imprinted in the hearts of others.It always embarks on a journey alone and wanders alone.I only want to be a back figure in other people's memories, and I don't want to stay for anyone.That is the never-ending, wandering traveler.

"Margaret, what a good name."

The wind messed up the speaker's blond hair, but the woman did not show any dissatisfaction, but showed her white teeth more confidently, "That is a very cute little flower, and there is a legend about it."

Before the girl sitting on the grass responded, the woman turned her face to the other side, facing the wind, and said, "Margaret can predict love."

She picked a flower at random, it was a Margaret with white petals, she muttered-"I like it, I don't like it, I like it, I don't like it..." while picking off the petals one by one.The petals danced slowly with the wind until they touched the grass.

"If the last petal is "like", then the love will come true; otherwise..."

The woman didn't remove all the petals, she stopped when there were only a few left.

"Why don't you read on?" the girl asked.

The woman stood up, let go of her hand, and let the wind blow away the poor Margaret, "I don't want to fall in love, is it okay?"

Smiling awkwardly, the girl felt that she had asked a stupid question. In order to cover up her gaffe, she casually asked another question: "Then...Miss Dandelion, what's so special about your name?"

"The flower language of dandelion is 'unstoppable love', 'wandering traveler'..." The woman named Dandelion paused, and said in a slightly self-deprecating tone: "I am a traveler who has to travel all the time. It matches very well."

"have to?"

Taking out an old diary from the pocket of her vest, Dandelion said: "This is my father's travel diary. He fell in love with my mother when he was traveling around the world. Later, when my mother was pregnant with me, he wanted to take care of me. With my mother, I gave up my dream of traveling around the world, and now I am fulfilling his last wish, replacing him to places he has never been to."

A look of disappointment crossed the girl Margaret's face, "So you won't stay here forever..."

"Yes." Bo Gongying felt the loss of the other party, and immediately changed the subject, "I am very grateful to you two mothers and daughters for taking me in, a person of unknown origin. As a thank you, you need to hear what happened when I was traveling outside story?"

Margaret nodded emphatically, listening attentively to every word of the other party.The outside world is much more interesting and exciting than this small town full of flowers.Maybe I didn't even realize it, but when the girl was listening to the story, her eyes were full of longing.

Dandelion arrived in this small town on a heavy rainy day. Margaret and her mother were happy to take her in when they saw the beautiful woman who was drenched by the rain and spoke gracefully.This town is far away from all big cities, so there are basically no tourists, not even a hotel, so Dandelion naturally stayed here temporarily.She is five years older than Margaret, but because of her bright personality, she and the originally shy girl quickly became good friends.

Until the day the dandelion leaves.

"Thank you for the horse! By the way, do you want to go with me?" Dandelion raised her eyebrows, patted the black horse standing next to her, and turned to Margaret who was helping to wrap her luggage around the horse. explain.

Margaret was taken aback by this sudden question, and the braid hanging on her back jumped along with her body, and nervously touched the Margaret-shaped hair accessory on her head, "Huh? Why? Ask like this? I... want to stay in this town and help my mother take care of the horse farm. "

"No, I see that you listened to the story I told you very engrossed, and you seem to want to go to the outside world to see it. I hope this is not my illusion!"

The brown eyelids dimmed a bit, and Margaret's hands unconsciously tugged at the small green floral coat on her body, but she still managed to put a smile on her face, shook her head and said, "It's probably yours." Misunderstanding."

"I knew you wouldn't admit it, but luckily I..."

"what?"

Dandelion didn't answer the other party's question directly, and her red pupils seemed to be thinking about something.She stepped on the pedals, rode lightly on the saddle, and straightened her waist. If she was wearing a knight outfit instead of a tight shirt and vest, she would probably be mistaken for a member of the Royal Knights, right?

"Have you wrapped up your luggage?"

Nodding her head, Margaret touched her braids and asked, "Are you really leaving?"

"Yes, I'm a traveler. What's the point of a traveler who doesn't travel?" Dandelion bent down and touched Margaret's head. "And I want to fulfill my father's last wish. If you don't want me, just Come find me!"

"Well! Okay!" Margaret knew that she would never be able to leave here because she had to be with her mother who was left alone, but she still put on her dazzling smile as always, "Then don't go too far, so I can't find you."

"Hahaha, you will find me. Margaret, I'm leaving. Say hello to your mother!" After pulling the rein and kicking the horse's belly, Dandelion left with her horse.

Only Margaret was left standing at the entrance of the town, watching her go; she did not return until she could no longer hear the hooves of the horses.

"Is the dandelion gone?" Margaret's mother asked in a panic as she came down the stairs as soon as she stepped into the house.

"She just left."

"Oops! She forgot to bring..." The mother raised the things in her hands, and after a closer look, it was the diary that Dandelion had always carried with her.

Margaret's eyes widened, "That's her father's travel journal!"

"Why don't you bring it to her quickly?"

Margaret's heart skipped a beat, or, this was a chance, a chance for her to go outside!However, the price of going out is precisely to leave her only family member, which she cannot do.

"But... I don't know where she went... How can I find her?"

The mother insisted on handing the diary to her, "Since it is something that is cherished by others, go and return it to others, she should not be far away! And don't you always want to see the outside world? Take this opportunity It's good to go out and broaden your horizons, but what's the good of staying with my aunt!"

At this time, a note fell out of the diary, and Margaret immediately picked it up when she saw it. When she saw it, it read:

Come to me, return this travel log to me, I will follow the route of the log, the next destination is Blaine Town, waiting for you! ──Dandelion

"This..." Margaret was in a daze, "I..."

Glancing at the note, my mother smiled, "Look, you've been told to find her too, go quickly!"

"But...Mom, aren't you the only one left in this case?" Although Margaret was a little moved, she still couldn't let go of her mother who had been dependent on her for seventeen years.

"But what! Don't be a mother, I can't live on my own! Don't go home until you find the dandelions!" Mother stuffed a big brown backpack for Margaret, "I've already Let me help you pack your bags!"

"What? Mom! When will you..."

Before Margaret could react, she was pushed out of the house, and a white horse stopped outside the door.

"Let's go, let's start your journey, daughter!" The mother helped Margaret get on the horse, patted the horse's buttocks, and said with a smile, "Don't go home without returning the journal! Goodbye!"

The white horse let out a long roar and started to move forward.Before Margaret could react, she had left the town where she had lived for 17 years.

Looking back now, what Margaret regrets the most is that she didn't say goodbye to her mother properly.
