Beach - Day 2: Part 3.

The ride I will never forget.

The bus was full of teens who's excited for going to an amusement park. Yes, we are riding on a stupid bus even tho almost everyone are probably rich as fluff and has their own car. I don't know the reason why but whatever. And yes, the teens are me and friends. There was an empty seat next to this fat dude that stink like a rotten fish. Would you sit down next to him if you were me? Exactly.. I would rather be squished to a window like how I am right now.

 

It's so warm in here and I can't even move an inch. Why did we ride the bus? Once again, it was Sungyeol his idea. When will I ever learn my lesson to never listen when Sungyeol suggest something?! Here I am now getting squished by tons of people. I could feel someone breathing behind me since my neck feels warm. I try to move my head a little to see who it was since I was curious for no reason.

 

I see Sungyeol looking down at me with a serious face. I raised my eyebrow. Was he thinking of something important? Never in my life I have seen him with a serious face like that. Not even once. Well, probably 'cause I have only known him for a few months. Back to the point, after realizing that I was staring at him, he snapped out of his thoughts and looked away.

 

“Why are you doing that?” I questioned.

 

“Doing what?” Sungyeol questioned back with a straight face while he stare out of the window.

 

I rolled my eyes. “Never mind.”

 

“So...” Sungyeol began. I waited and waited until he continues. If he have something to say then he better say it quickly because i'm getting impatient here. Come on Sungyeol. Yeollie. Friend. Buddy. Pal. COME ON!

 

“...nice weather today, huh?” Sungyeol blurted.

 

I mentally face palmed myself for anticipating what he was about to say. Nothing comes good out of this boy's mouth. I mean, what kind of a question is that? Well okay, people ask those questions in daily life. But why would he ask that out of the blue? I will never understand how his brain work.

 

“Eh...yeah sure I guess.” I shrugged.

 

The crowd slowly disappear one by one. Now I can finally breath and move freely. When are we going to reach our destination, though?! I thought Gongchan said the amusement park was NEARBY that villa. I don't even know how long we've been in this bus. Well, i'm not really the type to complain. I don't know what has gotten over me these past few months.

 

“OH OH OH, LOOKIE OVER THERE!” Gongchan jumped up and down as he pointed at something out of the window.

 

I looked and you have no idea how happy I felt. From here, I could see the gigantic roller coaster that's going as fast as a tornado. I am so going to ride that! I jumped along with Gongchan. I am so excited I can't even sdufgsidgasuigd. To tell you the truth, I have never been to an amusement park before. I have never been to the beach, to the amusement park, to anywhere. All I’ve been doing is stay home and do boring stuff.

 

A few minutes later, we were standing in front of the amusement park.

 

“Well, what are we waiting for? COME ON!” I ran towards the gate. Everyone follows behind me. Sandeul and Sungyeol were going to pay for our tickets so I can waste my money on food. This is probably one of the happiest moment of my life.

 

“I want to ride on that and that and that OH AND THAT!” I pointed at different things.

 

“Calm down. You're acting as if it's your first time in an amusement park.” Sungyeol rolled his eyes.

 

I shot him a glare. “So what if it is?”

 

He widened his eyes. “ARE YOU SERIOUS?!”

 

“Now now Sungyeol, remember that not everyone is as rich as us!” Sungjong pointed out.

 

“EXCUSE YOU!” I pointed my finger at him. “For your information, I am not a poor hobo or anything. I have a huge house with only 2 people breathing in it, which is me and my mom. She is just always busy with her work so we can never have a mother-daughter time. I have no idea why my friends and I never went together. Probably because i'm mostly at home TRYING to study hard since I don't want my mom to be disappointed in me!” I breathed for air after I was done saying my last sentence.

 

“What about your dad? Is he always busy too?” Sungjong ask. At the mention of 'my dad' I looked away awkwardly.

 

“NOW LET'S GO RIDE ON THAT!” I pointed at the roller coaster, ignoring the question. I quickly grab someone's arm and ran towards the roller coaster, dragging whoever it was.

 

I look to my right and see Sandeul panting hard. “Whoops. I thought you were Subin.” I scratch the back of my neck awkwardly and flash him a huge smile.

 

“It's okay! I will ride it with you if you want.” He offered.

 

“You would? Thank you! I don't really want to ride it all alone. What about the others though?” I look towards the direction where I ran from.

 

“You run so fast so they probably lost us. But they will be just fine! Maybe some people will make a fuss but that's okay.” He smiled. I raised my eyebrow.

 

“Some people? Make a fuss? Who? Why?” I look at him, my eyes full of curiosity.

 

“Oh look, it's our turn! Come on~” He sang as he walks coolly towards the roller coaster. I trailed behind him.

 

We both take our seat and make sure we're safe by putting on that thingy on roller coasters. Ya know? If you don't know then you're dumb, okay. Well, i'm dumb too since I don't know the name. ANYWAYS, we were just waiting for the ride to start until-

 

“AHA! WE CAUGHT YOU BOTH NOW!” A familiar voice shouted. I looked behind me and there they were. Sungyeol and Sungjong were looking at us with a smirk.

 

I clap my hands sarcastically. “Congrats, you guys must be proud.” Sandeul chuckled and give me a high five.

 

“The ride is starting.” Sandeul informed. I clap my hands again, getting excited.

 

The ride started slowly and as seconds passed by, it starts going faster and faster. Now it's going the fastest it can. Everyone was screaming and squealing their heads off. But me? I was laughing my off. Because first, Sandeul was screaming his head off too and this is the first time I see him screaming. And second, Sungjong was squealing so loud like a little girl.

 

Slowly, the ride began to slow down. After a few minutes, it stopped. Everyone got off and I was really satisfied. “That was fun!” I exclaim. Sandeul nodded. “You guys were screaming your heads off!” I laughed.

 

“I did not!” Sungjong pouted.

 

“You're right. You didn't scream your head off. You SQUALED your head off!” I made fun of him. He rolled his eyes and shot me a 'whatever' look.

 

I look at Sungyeol who has been quiet this whole time. I almost choked my heart out. His eyes were wide open and his mouth was a little bit open. His face was pale and it seems like his soul left his body.

 

“Err...guys...what happened to him?” I pointed at Sungyeol.

 

“Oh...right. Sungyeol doesn't like roller coasters. In fact, he HATES them with a passion.” Sandeul normally pointed out.

 

“WHAT?! Why would he ride the roller coaster then.” I panicked. Both Sandeul and Sungjong shrugged. I face-palmed myself. Why are they so useless? I quickly grab Sungyeol and ran away to find some water.

 

“YAH! Where are you going?” Sungjong was about to chase me but Sandeul stopped him. “Leave them be.”

 

I don't even know where i'm going. I just think that I should find some water so I can splash it all over his face or something. But now I’ve been running for the longest time and I still couldn't find anything. My throat is starting to get dry but luckily for me, I spot a water fountain just meters away. Sweet mama, finally! I start running with full speed and stopped right in front of the water fountain. I splash a little bit of water to my face. That feels refreshing!

 

I look at Sungyeol who still looked like he was out of the world. I grab a handful of water and splash it all over his face. He shook his head and widened his eyes at the cold liquid that hit him on the face.

 

“What...happened?” He blinked his eyes several time.

 

“OH NOTHING! Just that you were riding on a roller coaster when you actually hate it, I’ve heard and so being the nice friend I am, I dragged you towards this water fountain and splash a lot of water onto your face. You were out of this world but now you're back all thanks to me so you better be thankful!”

 

'Oh' was the only thing that escaped out of his mouth. I sighed. Boys are seriously hopeless and useless. Or maybe just the boys I hang out with? Ever since I came to this school, I think I lack some interactions with girls. Everywhere I go, all I see is boys.

 

“Thank you.” Sungyeol finally get something out of his mouth after a long moment of silence.

 

“Wow, I thought that will never comes out of your mouth! You're welcome.” I nodded. “Now tell me whatever stupid reason it was for you to ride on that roller coaster when you actually hates it.” I poked his arm.

 

“Not until you tell me about your dad.” He poked my arm back.

 

I pouted. “I guess i'll never know whatever stupid reason it was then.” I started walking away.

 

“Yah! Where are you going?” Sungyeol ran towards me and spun me around.

 

“I was just going to find the others. It's no fun being alone with you!” I joked.

 

“Yah! It's a hell lot of fun being with me.” He cockily remarked. “We just need to ride something suitable for us both to ride! Like ehh...” He look around to see if he could find something. “THAT!” He pointed.

 

“A merry-go-round? Are you serious?”

 

Sungyeol just shrugged. “I remember when Subin, Sandeul and I were riding the same horse together. We were like 5.” Sungyeol smiled at the memories.

 

I couldn't help but to smile too. That's just the cutest thing ever. “Fine, I will ride those with you. Just because i'm nice.” I looked at all the cute kids that were riding on it. I wanna squish their cheeks oh my god. I really love kids. They are all so cute and innocent. Me likey cute stuff.

 

“Stop staring at those kids like that. You look like a pedo!” Sungyeol snickered.

 

“I DO NOT!” I stomped my way to a pink horse with a rainbow tail. Sungyeol just chuckled and ride on the horse next to mine.

 

“The ride is starting!” I couldn't help but to feel excited.

 

The ride started and a cute song starts playing in the background. I chuckled. It feels like i'm back to the days where i'm still at kindergarten. Lots of elders were staring at Sungyeol and I weirdly while some kids laugh at us. Honestly, I don't even care anymore. I wave at all the people and smile widely.

 

“Yah, stop doing that! It's embarrassing!” Sungyeol complained.

 

“It was you who wanted to ride this merry-go-round!” I talked back. We continued on our little argument until the ride finish. We both got off and sit on a bench.

 

“That was actually pretty fun.” I grinned. Sungyeol nodded.

 

…

 

Silence.

 

…

 

“So-” Sungyeol was about to start a conversation until someone interrupted him.

 

“THERE YOU GUYS ARE!” A few meters away, I see Subin stomping her way to us. Uh-oh.

 

“WE HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU BOTH! HOW COULD YOU GUYS LEAVE ME BEHIND! I HAVEN'T EVEN RIDE ONE AT LEAST ONE RIDE!” Subin flails her arm and make a fuss. I chuckled at her childishness.

 

“Stop screaming!” Sungyeol close his ears. Subin pouted.

 

“Oppa, you're so mean! PSH, now we're going to ride on something together.” Subin quickly drag Sungyeol and walk away.

 

“Should we go too?” Sandeul asked. I nodded.

 

“Where are the others?”

 

“Oh, we're all separated. Don't worry about it. Let's go!” He grab my hand and drag me along. Suddenly, I feel my face warming up.

 

What is this feeling?

 

Sandeul's POV

 

In the end, we were lining up to ride on the Ferris wheel. I wanted to ride it with Subin, but knowing how she is, she will most probably drag Sungyeol along with her.

 

“IT'S OUR TURN! COME ON OPPA!” Subin quickly drag Sungyeol before he could complain and close the door. Minah wave at them and face me after that.

 

“Shall we?” Minah asked. I nodded.

 

On the ferris wheel, we were both really quiet. Minah was quietly admiring the beautiful view as the ferris wheel slowly goes up. I was looking staring into space. I need to start a conversation. But about what? Eh...

 

“So, will you tell me anything about your dad?” After minutes of thinking, I finally came up with a good topic. Minah let out a quiet gasp, a really quiet one but I still could hear it. She slowly face me and give me a weak smile. We were now on top and the ferris wheel has stopped.

 

“I don't actually know anything about my dad.” Minah started. “Ever since I was born, I never really remember anything about my dad. There was just one person that was taking care of me which is my mom. As I grow up, my mom slowly tell me stories about my dad. She said he got into an accident before I was born. She never really showed me any pictures of my dad and I can't find any pictures either. My mom leave it at that so I never ask her about it.”

 

Minah scratch the back of her neck and grin awkwardly. But I could see the hurt in her face. So she has been feeling lonely all this time. Why won't she let it all out? I seated myself next to her. Minah just look at me curiously.

 

“You feel...lonely don't you?” Minah blink a few times. “You're hurt don't you? You want to cry but tears just never seem to fall down your eyes...” I look at her. Minah's smile slowly disappear as she nodded slowly.

 

I patted her head and smile at her. “It's okay to cry.” At those words, she buried her face onto my chest and start sobbing. I hug her tightly as she sob. Poor little Minah. She has been hiding all these tears for so long. She's a strong girl. Her sobbing quiet down as she softly sniffles.

 

“S-sorry...” She say, her face still buried onto my chest. I patted her head again and laughed.

 

“It's okay.”

 

“C-can we stay like this for awhile? It's e-embarrassing to see me right now.” She whisper quietly.

 

“Of course.”

 

The ferris wheel started moving again. I look out of the window as the sky gets darker and darker by the seconds. When we were about to reach down, Minah take her head of my chest. She gave me a super wide smile and this time, there wasn't any hurt in it.

 

“Thanks!” She punch my arm playfully and open the door. She quickly scramble out as I follow her, chuckling. Subin and Sungyeol were already outside, arguing about stupid things.

 

“STOP IGNORING ME!” Subin held on Sungyeol's arm.

 

“AISH, LET GO OF ME!” Sungyeol shake his arm rapidly.

 

Minah and I look at each other then chuckle.
