    Charmine scrunched her eyes up tightly before she fell to the floor.


    Instead, shended in someone’s warm embrace.


    “Ouch…”

    She opened her eyes gradually and found Anthony lying on the floor right underneath them.


    She could see blood blossoming from his shoulder.


    “Are you alright?” she asked while picking herself up with Chris in her arms. There was a tinge of


    concern in her voice that she did not realize was present.


    “You’re worried about me, aren’t you?” He smirked at her.


    “Stop cracking jokes during a time like this, Anthony!” Charmine rolled her eyes.


    “I just got cut by the ss. It’s nothing serious so don’t worry about it,” he said, trying tofort her as


    he got back up on his feet.


    Charmine glimpsed at his back and saw a minor cut. Fortunately, the rest of him seemed unharmed.


    This Ferris wheel was far too dangerous! She had to get someone’s help.


    All of a sudden, the Ferris wheel was back to normal as she was trying to reach out for help on her


    cellphone.


    `What a coincident!’


    “It’s okay. Don’t be scared,” said Anthony. H e thought she was scared out of her wits since she


    seemed a bit zoned out.


    His voice was warm, gentle, andforting.


    He was now feeling a bit smug since Charmine was worried about him.


    Chris took a peek and gave a small smile Yay! Charmine likes Anthony by ten percent now!’


    The ride had finallye to an end.


    “That’s all for today. Go back and clean your wound,” said Charmine as she carried Chris out from the


    carriage.


    “It’s not a big deal. It’s just a minor scrape that can be dealt with a bandage,” murmured Anthony.


    It would be foolish for him to let such a date t o slip by! This was a now-or-never chance.


    Grimacing, Charmine said, “Anthony, are you serious…”


    “For Momo’s sake then. You know he likes t o be with you and so do I.” Charmine’s heart felt like it was


    filled to the brim by his words.


    “Momo needs mommy! Momo doesn’t wanna leave mommy!” Chris’s eyes began t o well up as he


    started to grumble.


    “If Momo was to separate from mommy, mommy might be leaving Momo forever…” Chris looked as if


    he was about to burst into tears.


    Her heart clenched at the sight. It was too hard to part from this five-year-old kid.


    “Don’t worry, sweetie. Auntie likes you very much and will definitely y with you when there’s a


    chance, alright?” she tried her best to blurt out some words offort.


    “Really? Let’s make it a pinky promise then, mommy!” Chris was now smiling through his tears while


    locking his pinkies with Charmine.


    What did she just say?


    She thought this would be thest time. However, it seemed like there would always b e a next time as


    she had to honor her promise with Chris.


    Things were not ying out how she had wanted them to at all.
