Bang, bang, bang!
The hammer landed against the wooden mast of the small boat, slowly fixing it back into place.
The old man, using the back of his hand, wiped the sweat off his brows.
At that moment, he heard footsteps coming behind him, and when he turned around, to his surprise, the young man had already returned.
"Oh, you're back?" The old man asked. "Don't be discouraged if you couldn't find her corpse right away."
"Oh, I found it." Adam said and showed a blue rose in his hand. "The curse is gone, and she has been put to rest."
The old man's eyes widened in surprise, and he took the blue rose gently, looking at its cold petals with tears streaming down his face.
To those who didn't know what was going on, it would look weird for the old man to cry over the blue rose, but Adam knew what exactly was going on.
"Sorry about my outburst." The old man said and wiped his tears. "You found the blue rose with her?"
