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 y a game together?”


    “That’s going to be nice. I’m going to crush you.” Luke yfully told her, and sheughed.


    “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 y first?” He asked, staring at


    1. 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 y 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 ce 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 Janiceugh and cheer,pletely engrossed


    in their friendlypetition. They looked great together. Maybe bing 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 w machine, where Janice begged Luke to try to win her a


    stuffed animal. Luke rolled his eyes yfully 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 un


    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 eximed, 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 exhration bubbling within me. The atmosphere was electric, filled with


    theughter 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


    andughter 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 exhration 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’sughter 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 exhrating


    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 d 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.”

    “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.”

    “Why shouldn’t be mad at you? Remember all the words you’ve told me today,


    and give me one reason why I shouldn’t be mad at you.”


    All those words I said, I didn’t mean any of them.”


    “Oh really?” I shot him a skeptical look.


    “Yes, I love you, and you know that.
