Chapter 57

"Mr Monk!" The 9 year old girl in a purple dress waved at us as soon as we get back from the river on the mountain's foothill.

"Sara-chan~" Letting go of Mr Monk's hand, I hurry up my tiny steps and run towards her.

"Miyu-chan, don't run!" Mr Monk advised me gently.

"Sara-chan, why are you so late today? Wasn't it weekend today?" I asked her.

"I'm sorry, I just finished my violin lesson just now." That pastel pink hair girl starched her cheek shyly.

"It's okay, we are just coming back from the river, Sara-chan. And here." Mr Monk hands her the wild berry that he picked when we are going into the forest.

"Have a try, Sara-chan. It was delicious!" I urged her.

"Itadakimasu!" Sara picks the berry from his hand and eats it.

"Wow, it tasted very sweet!" Sara's eyes are sparkling as she chews down the berry in her mouth.

"Now, let's go to the shrine and make a prayer before we play with the dogs." He said with his voice that's filled with gentleness.

"Yea!" I exclaimed.

Then, all of a sudden a loud grumpy voice called out for Sara.

"Sara-chan!"

I turn and saw Mrs Ogawa clutches her waist with her both hand angrily. She pulls Sara's ear as she scolds her harshly.

"I told you before not to come here again but why do you keeps on coming here?!" Mrs Ogawa scolded her.

"Ouch! I am sorry, mother! Please let go of me!" Sara begged her.

"Mrs Ogawa-san, please let go of your daughter. She did nothing wrong." Mr Monk advised with his gentle voice making her seems pissed off.

"And you! Why do you teach my daughter to be lazy? Do you know that she was performing violin worst day by day? And she didn't even bother to practice it at home, instead she come here to have fun like an idiot." She scolded.

"She is nothing compared to her brother! All I wanted is she to be a great violinist at a young age so that I can be proud of her!" Mrs Ogawa pushes her aside.

"Mrs Ogawa-san, I think you are pushing your daughter too much—"

"I know what I am doing so please mind your own business, Mr Monk." Mrs Ogawa glares at him before she pulls Sara tiny arm and head home.

"No! I don't want to go home!" Sara struggles her arm.

"Miyu-chan, help me! Miyu-chan!"

"Miyu-chan!!"

"Miyu-chan!" Yuuto called me as he shakes my shoulder.

"Eh?" I finally sobered up from my flashback and I notice that the ride had already ended.

"Are you too scared that your mind has gone blank?" Yuuto teased me.

"My ass bro." I pointed my middle finger at him.

After having that roller coaster ride, I began to crave more and more adventurous ride. So, I decided to go on a pirate ship ride that was not far away.

"Miyu-chan, you sure?" Yuuto looks at me as he holds on the safety bar handle of the pirate ship.

"I was born ready!" I smirked.

"Here we goooooo!!!" I shouted when the ship began to swing back and front.

"AHHHH!!!!!!" Yuuto screamed on top is his lung as the ship goes faster.

I close my eyes and enjoy every gust of wind that goes through me. That ride makes me feels carefree and I enjoy it so much!

15 minutes later...

"Miyu, hel-help me." Yuuto holds onto the bench while his leg started to wiggling like jelly.

"You okay, Yuuto-kun?" I went to get him.

"Can-can we stop taking such a scary ride?" He begged.

"No. Not yet because there's still 1 more ride I wanna try."

"But...." Yuuto looks at me.

"Please....just one more Yuuto-'sama', nyah~" I hugged him.

"Ugh.... fine....." Yuuto blushed a bit.

''Jya, let's go over there.'' I pointed at the giant swing ride.

''Hell no....'' Yuuto murmured as his face goes a bit pale after looking at the gigantic lollipop that's spinning everyone on the hanging swing around it.

''Hell yea!'' I grabbed his hand, heading towards the swing ride.

***

''So how was the ride? It was super fun, right?'' I excitedly chatted with Yuuto as I dipped my french fried into the sauce.

''I will never EVER ride that dangerous thing ever again. How could that crazy ride be fun? It was literary spinning everyone around and I can barely feel my stomach. Miyu, the next time when we come visiting a theme park, please stop taking such a ridiculous and dangerous ride.'' He began to complain.

''Pfft!! Yuuto-kun, I think you are just too paranoid about those rides. Here, eat this and we are going back.'' I stuffed a piece of my fries into his mouth.

''Hmph....'' His eyebrows crease a bit as he crosses his arm together.

Yuuto then went looking outside the window and notice that the sun began to set. Suddenly, his face brighten up and he gives me a puppy look saying,

''Miyu-chan, let's go and ride on a ferris wheel!''

Seeing him getting so fired up, I just can't say 'no' at his cute face. So I just nodded my head in agreement.

After we finish our dinner, we lined up behind those who wanted to get on the ferris wheel. Thank god there are not so many people who were lining in front of us and soon it was our turn.

''Welcome on board and please enjoy your ride.'' The theme park staff wished us.

''Thank you.'' Yuuto smiled at him before we get into the ride.

I sat on the opposite side of Yuuto since there are 2 wide seats that could fit 4 people at a time. Leaning closer to the window, I notice that the colourful light from the city slowly lightened up after the sun has completely set.

''Yuuto-kun, look! The city looks so small and beautiful from this distance.'' I pointed outside from the window.

''Yes.... it was..'' Yuuto leans his arm against the window and rested his chin on it.

I didn't notice that he was looking at me for the whole time until I turn my head, facing him. Seeing his mesmerising emerald green eyes that's matched with his fair skin, I hold my breathe for a moment after I realized that he has the same jawline and face structure with...

Yuuto smiled at me gently as he brushes his messy red hair off his forehead.

''What are you looking at?'' He asked.

''Touma-san.'' I blurted out.
