INFINITE MONEY - I Will Buy Everything

"Well that was fun." William commented as they lay on the edge of the sandy beach as some waves came and bath them momentarily.

Genna and Hannah nodded to his words as they also lay on the beach. Genna because she was tired of learning how to swim and failing and Hannah swimming while having fun with William.

"Do you guys wanna do this again?" He asked.

Genna and Hannah hearing that nodded quickly while saying.

"YEAH!"

"Of Course"

William smiled before a question came to his head as he smiled, "Do you guys come here often?"

"Only sometimes," Hannah spoke, "But we have to leave quickly because of Genna."

Genna said embarrassingly, "Hey! It's not my fault that I can't swim."

"But it is." Hannah said as a fact which made Genna look away in shame.

"Don't worry about it. You will learn at your own pace and then we can all have a race someday, what do you say?" William said.

"Ye- Yeah… why not just let me learn the basics first, okay?" Genna shuddered thinking of swimming fast in the big wide ocean with its infinite depth.

William nodded before coming back to what he was saying, "So... do you guys bring your parents with you whenever you come here?"

"Ye- Not really… sometimes we just come here purely for some fun." Hannah said with honesty.

"No offence Genna but how do you let her swim when you are the only one who comes with her."

Hearing his question made Genna embarrassed even though she knew he was asking just out of politeness.

"We don't. Every time me and Genna come to the beach, we only play on the sand and leave… sometimes I would go swim and she would watch over me." Hannah said as Genna smiled at her.

"But we do swim sometimes." Genna said, "When our moms are free we ask them to come to the beach and Hannah's mom helps me swim."

William nodded as he understood the complexity of Genna not being comfortable with her own stepmother, which was entirely acceptable.

Hey! He himself doesn't like his own mother, so why would he try to talk about someone else's.

William thought for a moment before he told them, "I'm leaving."

Both the girls looked at him curiously and asked, "Where? Are you going on a trip or something?"

William shook his head, "No… I am permanently leaving this place."

Both straightened up as shock went through them, "You're leaving this place?" William nodded, "But why?"

"Do you guys see the METRO Light News, a few days ago?" He asked, his face betraying sadness.

They shook their heads, "Well… I had an interview with them."

"You interviewed with them… on live television?" Genna asked shocked.

William nodded, "Yeah I did… but that doesn't matter. What I was about to ask was, do you guys remember the many sudden earthquakes that happened a few weeks back?"

Both of them started thinking hard about it as Hannah came first, "Oh! Do you mean that earthquake that had killed many people, the one that they are still looking into it's real cause?"

William nodded, "Yeah that's the one. You see, many people died that day and… my father was also one of them."

His words made both the girls even more shocked then anything. Never did they think that something like this would happen. They looked at William with eyes full of pity and sadness and became sad just from seeing him like that.

Hannah quickly jumped on William as she hugged him to the ground, "I'm sorry to hear that. I don't know how you must feel but it should really be bad."

Genna also came and hugged his back and said, "Yeah… We're sorry that we didn't know any of this before but… I'm sure that wherever your father is right now, he's in a better place."

William already knew that he might have gotten a similar reaction but it still made him smile seeing his only two friends consoling his sad act. He patted both of their backs as it seemed like the girls themselves were about to cry themselves.

"Thank you for that." He said, "It's for that matter that I need to move away from here."

His words brought them back to reality as Hannah asked, "But why?... why do you have to leave?"

"Well… I am my father's only son and with him dying…"

"All of the duty and responsibility falls on your shoulders." Genna said finishing his sentence.

"Right… With him dead… I need to go there and take care of all the things that have halted after his unseemly death. Not only that but I also need to go to the official's and get my inheritance signed too otherwise I would have trouble in the future with the banks and everything else." He said and let it sink into their heads for a moment.

What came next was a moment of brief silence, before the girls truly broke down crying and hugging him to death as both of them pleaded him not to go away. They started crying and hugging him so tightly that many were looking at them with very suspicious eyes and most wondered whether it had to do with a lover's quarrel or something similar.

He also knew that something like this happening was possible and he could have avoided it by not telling them anything until the final moment but he decided not to do that. He was not only his neighbors but also his only friends.

Friends that he didn't have other than the past servants from his old days back when he was in his father's care. Just like them, He knew that the girls genuinely cared about him as well. So no matter what he had to tell them about this.

After a long while of consoling them and letting them know that he would come and visit them whenever he got a chance, did they finally let him off their death hold.

"S- So you'll visit us right?"

"Every time I can."

"And we can also go to the beach as well?"

"Of Course and I expect to see you learn how to swim by that time, alright?"

Genna nodded as tears and snot flew from her face with each nod she gave him. William started laughing a lot looking at both of their faces.

They looked at him curiously before Genna asked, "Wh- why are laughing at us like that?... don't tell me this was all a silly prank by you, right?" She said as she and Hannah started looking overly angry with their snotful faces.

"No no, it's not… it's just quite funny looking at you guys making that expression when snot is literally running down your faces." He said while trying to stop the laughter from his hands but ultimately failing.

The girls immediately touched their faces and knew he was right as they became red with embarrassment and quickly tried to wipe away everything from their faces.

"You know it would have been better if this was actually a joke." Hannah said with a somber voice.

"Yeah it would."

'It would have but… this is a great opportunity for me and unfortunately I can't exploit it while being here… I'm sorry guys.' William thought as he looked at their faces.

"Hey how about this? Tomorrow we come here again but this time we bring your moms, what do you say?"

Both nodded constantly as the somber moment quickly turned to a happy one.
