243: MORE MOMENTS ARIEL’S POV “What did iniss?” Luke asked, smiling at the both of us. “Oh, you missed a lot,” I answered. “Daddy!” Janice ran to him. “Where did you go?” “I just had some things to take care of. But don’t worry now; Daddy’s back.” “Cool, how about we play a game together?” “That’s going to be nice. I’m going to crush you.” Luke playfully told her, and she laughed. “We’ll see about that,” she smirked at him. These two were giving me joy, putting a gleeful smile on my face. I couldn’t control the joy.. “Come on, let’s do this.” Luke chuckled, ruffling her hair affectionately before turning to me. “Alright, what game should we play first?” He asked, staring at me. I shrugged. “I’ll let you two decide. I’ll just watch and cheer you on.” But Janice wouldn’t have it. “No way! You have to play with us, mommy!” I chuckled, giving in to her infectious enthusiasm. “Okay, okay. Let’s see what you two have in store for me. We made our way to a racing game with three steering wheels attached. I took my place in the middle, with Janice on my left and Luke on my right. As we started the game, I couldn’t help but notice how competitive they both were, their eyes. fixed on the screen as they maneuvered their cars with precision. On the other hand, I was terrible at racing games. I couldn’t seem to get the hang of the controls, and my car kept crashing into walls and other cars. But Janice and Luke didn’t seem to mind; they were too focused on beating each other. As we moved on to another game, I watched Luke and Janice laugh and cheer, completely engrossed in their friendly competition. They looked great together. Maybe becoming a family wouldn’t be a bad idea for the three of us. I didn’t know why I wasn’t still settled on that. Eventually, we made our way to the claw machine, where Janice begged Luke to try to win her a stuffed animal. Luke rolled his eyes playfully but couldn’t resist her puppy dog’s eyes. After a few tries, he finally managed to grab a stuffed unicorn, much to Janice’s delight. After we were done, we made our way out of the arcade, with Janice holding onto her new unicom tightly “Daddy, that was amazing. I knew I would love spending time with you. This is fun.” Luke looked at her with a smile and ruffled her hair. “It is, sweetheart. And guess what? We’re just getting started.” “Oh, really?” Janice asked. “Yes. We’re going to have a lot of fun today.” “Yes, daddy. Lots and lots of fun.” Janice beamed, squeezing Lake’s hand as we walked back to his car. And I couldn’t wipe the smile off my face. I just had joy watching these people. My heart raced with excitement as I stood in line with Luke and our Janice at the entrance of the colossal rollercoaster. The sun shone brightly in the clear blue sky, casting a golden hue over the amusement park. Janice’s eyes sparkled with anticipation, her small hand tightly gripping mine as we moved closer to the coaster. “I cannot believe we are doing this,” I exclaimed, covering my mouth with my hand. Luke smirked at me. “Don’t tell me you’re scared. “Me? Why would I be scared?” “I don’t know. Because you can be unbelievable sometimes.” “Are you going to keep throwing insults at me all day?” “Sorry, I love you. I just can’t help it.” He smirked and turned his face away, wearing a wide grin on that countenance, eager to experience the adrenaline rush of the twisting, turning ride. I couldn’t help but feel a mix of nervousness and exhilaration bubbling within me. The atmosphere was electric, filled with the laughter of children and the excited chatter of fellow thrill–seekers.. As we reached the front of the line, a surge of excitement washed over me. The coaster loomed overhead, its tracks twisting and turning into intricate patterns against the sky. The sounds of screams and laughter filled the air as the cars zoomed along the tracks, disappearing into loops and corkscrews. With a final check of our safety harnesses, Luke, Janice, and I climbed into the front row of the coaster car. The attendant gave us a thumbs–up, and with a sudden lurch, the coaster began its ascent. My heart pounded in my chest as we climbed higher and higher, the park shrinking below us. At the peak of the coaster’s ascent, we were treated to a breathtaking view of the entire park stretched out before us. I felt a rush of exhilaration as the coaster plunged downward, picking up speed with each passing second. The wind. whipped through my hair as we hurtled through twists and turns, the world a Elur of colors and sounds. Janice’s laughter echoed in my ears, a symphony of joy that warmed my heart. Luke’s whoops of excitement mingled with the screams of our fellow riders, creating a cacophony of sound that added to the thrill of the experience. We were weightless, suspended in time as we raced along the tracks for a few exhilarating moments. The coaster finally came to a stop, and my heart was still racing, my cheeks. flushed with excitement. Janice was practically bouncing with joy, her eyes shining with the thrill of the ride. Luke wore a broad smile on his face, his sparkling with excitement. Stepping off the coaster, a sense of contentment washed over me. But it was really kind of crazy. Well, I was glad that was over. “So, how was the ride?” Luke quizzed me, grinning. “It was great.” “Oh, I see. It seems like your fear has disappeared.” “I was never scared,” I defended. “Are you sure about that?” He gave me a sardonic smile. I rolled my eyes, suspensing, and turned my face away. “I’m sorry, I was just joking,” he apologized. “To hell with you and your jokes.” eyes “Mommy, Daddy, let’s go for another ride.” Janice bounced on the ground with so much joy. “Woah woah woah, easy there, little one. We can’t go for another ride.” “Come on, daddy! Please, I love it so much.” “Aren’t you exhausted?” Luke asked her. “No, I’m not exhausted.” “Well, I am. Maybe some other time, okay?” He ruffled her hair, and then he looked around. “I think we should get ourselves something to eat.” Larke musht me I didn’t give him a Mathet abonat too Artel?
