E12P6: "It's Okay, I'm Here"

{OST: "Galaxy" by Bolbbalgan4}

25th December 2018,
Heart Signal Day 24,
Day of Final Date,
Tuesday

[Lotte World, 5:05 p.m.]

The duo reached Lotte World later that day and purchased the half-day ticket at 50% of the price, which allowed them to enter from 5:00 p.m. onwards. They entered Lotte World happily.
Jimin: Ah-! I haven't been here for ages!
Yoojung: I haven't been here before.
Jimin gasped.
Jimin: Really?
Yoojung frowned and nodded. Jimin sensed her sadness and didn't want to ask any more questions. He smiled and changed the topic quickly.
Jimin: I gotta bring you to catch all the rides today then! Let's go!
Jimin grabbed onto Yoojung's hand and pulled her towards the nearest ride - the viking ride.

[Heart Signal Panel]

J-Hope: OMG, not the viking.
RM laughed at J-Hope.
RM: The last time I remember sitting on a viking with Hobi, he literally passed out.

J-Hope: Oh, shut up.
V: Shut up? I guess I can't tell them about that time you- ah, never mind. I guess they can search on Naver themselves.

[Lotte World, 5:15 p.m.]

Thankfully, the queue was really short, despite it being Christmas Day. Perhaps everyone was at home, having Christmas gatherings. Jimin and Yoojung reached the start of the queue really quickly.
Jimin: You nervous?
Yoojung nodded eyeing the viking ship swing up and down and listening to the people on the ship scream their lungs out.
Yoojung: What's it like? It looks really high.
Jimin laughed.
Jimin: It's really nothing. It's fun, in fact, though sometimes you might feel like falling.
Yoojung's eyes widened.
Yoojung: Say that again?
Jimin: You might feel like you're falling out of the ship! But that's only if you sit at the back rows.
Yoojung: Let's take the front rows then, and sit in the centre of the ship.
Jimin laughed and shook his head.
Jimin: Where would the fun be? You've gotta take the back rows!

[Heart Signal Panel]

V: Oh no, I have a bad feeling about this.

[Lotte World, 5:20 p.m.]

It was finally Yoojung and Jimin's turn and Jimin grabbed onto Yoojung's wrist, pulling her towards the back row seats. They took a seat, put the safety bar over them and Yoojung looked over at Jimin, a worried expression on her face.
Yoojung: Are you sure I can handle this?
Jimin laughed.
Jimin: Sure you can. Remember to flail your arms when the ship is swinging down. It's more fun that way.
He grabbed Yoojung's hand in his and smiled at her.
Jimin: And if you're scared, just squeeze my hand really hard!
The ship started to move off and Yoojung started to squeeze Jimin's hand really hard. Jimin smiled assuringly at Yoojung. As the ship got higher and higher, Yoojung squeezed harder and harder, until Jimin was concentrating more on the pain than on the ride itself.
Jimin: It's okay, it's okay. I'm here, don't worry.
Jimin tried to comfort her but Yoojung's eyes were shut close and she head was buried in his shoulder. In summary, she looked like she was having a terrible nightmare - just that the nightmare was in real life.
Yoojung: GET ME OFF! AHHHHHH!!! OPPA, I'M SCARED!!! AHHHHH!!!
Yoojung genuinely looked like she was going to die from fear of the ride. Jimin was laughing at first, but slowly he started to realise that she was truly scared to death. He squeezed her hand back.
