I Lack Money

Nicole’ s eyes felr sore. ”They must think that I‘m dead… My dad and my brothers must be so sad right now…” Nathaniel paused and looked up at her. He felt a little heartache at her expression of despair. “We still need rohave a. lirlle hope…” “What hope?””” Nicole looked up at him with shining eyes, as if reflecting a sea or stars. Nathaniel froze beforesaying, “Throughout history, there have accounts of people who have crossed the sea by swimming” Nicole said, “Will you shut up” "Okay" Nicolo laid down on a pile of leaves and unknowingly drifted of into deep sleep. When Tigger realized that they were no longer in danger, it poked out of Nicole’s pocket and went to explore the cave. Nathaniel caught Tlgger with nimble movements and appraised It. “Nikki carries a pet with her?” Tigger’s four legs flailed in the air. “..Let go!I’m a tiger, not a pet!” Nathaniel’s eyes shined. “It’s a talking fake tiger!” Tigger’s whiskers trembled with anger. This was an insult to his sell-esteem as a tiger! ”I’m a real tiger!” Nathaniel chuckled and spun Tlgger in circles by its tail, like a cat playing with a mouse. Tigger yelled In anger, “Mama, save me! I’m gonna get killed …” Nathaniel immediately covered Tigger’s mouth and cast a guilty glance at Nicole, who was still fast asleep, before he sighed in relief . “No more screaming!” He let go of Tigger, who jumped to the ground and held its head high proudly. Unfortunately, Tigger was dirty, so no one could see its clean and lovely appearance from before. Tigger tilted its head and looked up at Nathaniel cutely. ”I know you! Nathaniel Ferguson isa well-known social media influencer. Your adventure documentary has won five consecutive international awards, and you have fans all over the world! You’re also the great-grandson of the Chairman of Ferguson Corporation.You’re from a powerful family.” Nathaniel was originally just surprised, but when he heard the last sentence, his eyes darkened slightly. "You know quite a lot huh…" When Nathaniel first got popular, his close friends found out his Identity, but the news quickly disappeared. ”Of course! My databaise has information from all around the world.As long as something appears on the internet once, I’ll know about it!” Nathaniel smiled and picked Tigger up placing it on his palm. “You can’t tell Nikki that Eric is my uncle, otherwise… I wonder if those indigenous people like to eat tigers…” Tigger’s eyes widened and spunaround “You dare threaten a tiger?!” Nathaniel said, "Uh·huh…” Tigger’s vigor weakened significantly. “Mama hates the Ferguson family the most! You’re afraid that she’ll abandon you when someone comes to her rescue, right?!” Nathaniel raised his brows. ‘Hah! This fake tiger read my thoughts? It’s quite capable, huh…’” Nicole finally got a good night’s sleep without having to worry about being roasted by the indigenous people. The waves washed over the rocks, and the loud howling wind woke her up. When she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw wasTigger squatting next to her. It stared at her with wide, round eyes, looking so ditsy and adorable.” As soon as Nicole reached out, Tigger tacitly jumped into her hand and nuzzled her chin. Nathaniel went to fetch seawater. "Mama, I loveyou…” Nicole smiled and stretched her back “I love you too…” When Nathaniel came back, he started distilling freshwater from seawater. He had no choice. Nathaniel could handle anything himself, but this melodramatic woman Nicole could not. Nicole pondered. She could not just sit here and wait. She began to pick up some relatively reflective stones on the beach and arranged the SOS symbol on the huge boulders. Just in case a helicopter passed by and saw it… Tigger reluctantly helped Nicole push the stones with its cute and tiny tiger legs. “Mr. f’erguson…” "Just call me Niel" Nathaniel leisurely held a cup of precious freshwater and took a sip. He winked at her with a smile and was very friend y. His naturally approachable personality made Nicole feel very comfortable around him. Nicole paused .’Well, sure…AS long as he’s okay with it.’ “Niel, do you have any wishes? I’ll help you realize them when we get back.” Nathaniel paused and looked at her very seriously. ”I lack money.”
