As we walked around, I got compliments from people I didn't even know. It was usually "hey I like your outfit!" but it quickly turned into "Hey, love your costume!". Can't blame them for thinking I had a costume on though. From what I know people dress up for fairs all the time, so I was in the clear. The entire time we were at the fair I didn't get a single sneer or snide comment from anybody! It was nice being able to walk around without anybody staring at me in disgust. Walking around I actually felt like, well, me! I didn't feel like I was being taken control of or anything, it felt like I actually belonged. "Hey, Zena, it's getting dark, you wanna go to the Ferris wheel?" Scarlet asked as we walked along the streets. I nodded in approval, and we were off.
Whenever we got to the Ferris wheel Milinda and Addy were right in front of us in the line. There were chatting up a storm about wings or something. It looked like they were having fun. As we got into the ride Scarlet said, "So I'm guessing you've never been on one of these before?"
"Nope, I've actually never been on a fair ride in my entire life." I answered "Huh, alright then." The ride started with a small creek. I was a bit startled by the ride moving up and I closed my eyes to not scare myself. After a little bit it stopped and Scarlet nugged me. "Hey, there letting more people in, you can open your eyes now" I slowly did and was amazed by what I saw. The sun was just setting just enough so it didn't blind you, but the sky still swirled with pink and orange from the sun and clouds. It had gotten dark enough for all of the lights on the rides to be seen, seeming like colorful stars from the Ferris wheel's height. The air was filled with the smell of popcorn, funnel cake, and the like, along with laughter and joy. "It's nice isn't it." Scarlet asked as I stared at the beautiful scene in front of me. "Yea...It really is." We both looked on for a moment until Scarlet nugged me again and said, "Hey look!" As she pointed to two specks on the ground that were holding hands: it was Addy and Milinda. I looked at Scarlet in disbelief and stammered "Is...Is the two love birds?!" Scarlet nodded excitedly as the ride started to move once more.
