"That was amazing, We totally defeated brother, didn't we" Li Sicheng sister who I came to know as Diana exclaimed bouncing around as we left the bumper cars' area.
"Yes, it was" I agreed, beaming.
-And it really was-
After we went to the shooting gallery. Which ended in my total defeat, we went on trying the different rides and slides. It was honestly incredible.
"Oh, It's getting late, so I have to leave now," I injected after looking at my watch to see that the time had already flown by.
-I guess the saying that time flies when you are having fun was correct-
I saw Diana muttering something into Li Sicheng's ear, which caused him to nod.
"Ok. Hmm, can I have your number" He asked with his hands in his pockets as he rocked on his feet.
"What" I questioned, doubting that I had heard correctly.
"I mean, I just wanted to check and make sure that you got home safely" He justified stuttering.
"But you don't have to if you don't want to" He flushed as he fidgeted.
"It's ok. Your phone" I implied with my hand out in his direction. After he handed me his phone with a quiet thanks, I inputted in my phone number and gave it back to him.
"Here you go"
-I felt very comfortable with him after the time we spent together. He was a nice kid-
I swatted down to Diana's Height, "It was a pleasure meeting you today, Princess Diana" I praised smiling at her.
"Yes, it was. And It also was a pleasure meeting you" She repeated with the sides of her mouth raised.
I noticed she liked being called a princess, and so I started to refer to her as such. She had a very sassy personality, which was really cute on her.
"Goodbye then" I said to both of them as I waved
"Bye. Till we meet again" She shouted waving back with her brother as she held onto her brother's free hand.
The sun had gone down already and the butterflies had retreated from the flowers. The crowd slowly dwindled down as they left. The air had turned slightly chilly, making me grasp my jacket tighter to my body. I then decided to wait at the ice cream stall after calling Mr Matthew to inform him that I was done for the day and to pick me up.
As I stood by the stall, I heard someone say
"Hi baby girl, How about you keep me company this evening," A man with his clothes in disorder jeered, making my hands immediately search for the pepper spray in my bag.
"No," I declared then went on to ignore him
-Just leave. I don't want my day to be ruined because of some sleazy old man-
"Ha, teenagers these days, No respect for elders. So fucking rude" He lectured, attempting to grab my shoulders
As I readied my pepper spray and my brain flashed with ways on how I could bring him the most pain, A man with a tall build stepped in between us
"How about I keep you company" He intimidated
"So you already had a man. You whore" he scorns while running away. I supposed the man who replied to him was intimidating to him.
"Thank you," I announced, facing the back of the man. Although I knew I didn't need the help.
"You are welcome," He said, turning around, And I confirmed that he was the man from whom I had bought ice cream from.
"It would do you some good to carry some self-defence items when going out alone. These days, places aren't really safe, especially for young girls" he advised while removing his apron.
"I know," I agreed, showing him my pepper spray.
"Good" He pointed out in approval
My ringtone rang out, interrupting the conversation.
I answered to hear that Mr Matthew was already waiting for me at the entrance.
"Ok I am coming down" I replied
"Thanks again for your help," I repeated, then left the park.
....
"How was it Miss," He inquired after a greeting
"It was fun" I answered, settling into my seat.
-It really was-
"That's good to know. Actually, my kids sometimes come here, so I have heard nice things about this place. I am glad it got your approval" He jests, making me laugh.

*Behind the scenes 1*
"Hahaha," I heard her laugh at the story my sister had been repeating to everyone she met after it had happened.
"And then he cried when I didn't even hit him back" Diana explained
"Wow. You are amazing" She laughs
-I noticed that She was good with kids. She was the kind of person to laugh at kids jokes even when it was clearly not funny, just to make them happy-
She Might not know, but her laughter was attracting a lot of attention with the way her eyes curved, and her cheeks deepened, showing the dimples at the sides of her face.
I really liked the way her eyes widened whenever she saw something, showing her surprise at it. Causing her eyes to catch the sunlight, illuminating the sparkle in her brown eyes.
I was really puzzled by her surprise because these things should not be that bewildering to her as she came from a rich modern home as I heard from the rumours. But it was to her.
She kinda reminded me of characters I watched in films that came from the past to the future and how they reacted to seeing modern things for the first time.
But that was clearly impossible, as This was reality.

*Behind the scenes 2*
"Aron. You are now a free man" Harry sang as he burst into my room.
-He could only do this because he was one of my good friends-
"What do you mean," I asked without pulling away from my attention from my notes.
"Well, one of my informants just got a picture of one of your persistent admirers on a date," He mused
-Informant was just his light term for a mindless minion. He was a boy that thrived on information, after all, he came from a family that focused on Information gathering-
"If you don't have anything important to say. Get out" I chided
"Ouch, Still so cold even after the many years we spent together" He joked, dragging a seat to my side and slouching down on it.
"Get out" I maintained my stand.
"Well, I think this will get your attention. It is a picture of the Quinn adopted Miss. Teirrah Quinn on a date with a boy" He recounted dragging the last part in a singing tone, making me instantly raise my head from my notes
"What" I questioned in disbelief, snatching the phone in his hands.
The picture caught her mid-laughter. She was beaming at a brown-haired boy.
"One less stalker after you, man. We should celebrate with a drink at the new club that opened" He rejoiced, but I ignored him.
The picture irritated me, like sand in my eyes.
-Did you really mean it. You don't love me anymore-
