Seonghwa and the others started walking around the different stalls and passing by lots of people.
Little kids were running around, either holding some stuffed animal, or some weird thing that they ate that resembled a cloud. Maybe.
"Mingi can I ask you something?" He said hesitatingly. This gained the attention of the rest, who seemed to form a circle around the human.
"Of course pup" He smiled widely, and wrapped his hand around the boys shoulders.
"What is this?" He said and pointed at a child who was eating that weird cloud.
"You don't know what it is?"
"If I knew, I wouldn't ask" He said, his cheeks turning pink. Was his question stupid? Was he supposed to know what that was?
"Wait, you've never been to a carnival?" Wooyoung said, sounded somewhat offended. His voice raised a little at the end.
Seonghwa shook his head, too embarrassed to talk. Was this something that he was supposed to know? He wasn't allowed to be outside of the house, unless it was some meeting, or when he was little, he went to a specific park. He had no idea that a place like this existed. But he wouldn't know, being locked inside this prison.
"OK, I'm glad I picked this place"
"Am I stupid?" Seonghwa asked, barely above a whisper. But the others heard him.
You're not pup. Don't ever say that. And we didn't mean it to sound like that. We were just shocked that's all" Yunho said, trying to comfort the human.
Seonghwa had a little trouble believing that but managed to force a smile either way.
"And to answer your question, this is cotton candy. I can't describe what it is, so you need to try. Actually, we're heading to get some" Yeosang said and dragged the boy with him, ahead of the others.
The two were first to reach a small stall, where a young man was giving this 'cotton candy' to children. Seonghwa watched amazed as some weird fluff was on the machine and then the man turned it around on a stick.
The demon smiled at Seonghwas reaction, it was one of a five year old. Once the line moved and it was their turn, he asked politely for a cotton candy. Seonghwa was too occupied observing the procedure, gasping every once in a while.
Mingi soon caught up with them, and went to help Yeosang. The demon, once Seonghwas order was finished, he gave the candy to him.
Seonghwa smiled widely seeing the fluffy cloud so close to him. He opened the bag and holding the stick, he touched it with his finger. It was surely fluffy and soft.
He took a piece of it, smelling it. The smell of strawberry hit his nostrils. He took it and placed on his tongue. He expected that he had to chew it. But to his surprise, the fluff dissolved into his mouth. He hadn't time to react.
It left behind a sweet, sugary taste along with the smell and flavor of strawberry.
His eyes widened, and took another piece of the sweet goodness. And soon enough it disappeared again. That was truly amazing.
"So do you like it?" Jongho asked, paying close attention to the boy's reactions. He was eating his own, and smiled fondly at the small human.
Seonghwa smiled and nodded, devouring the small treat in a blink of an eye. It was delicious, he had to admit.
Once he finished, he felt like his stomach would burst. Maybe he ate it too fast. But he didn't care. That was the best food he had eaten so far.
As they were walking around, having disposed of the rubbish, Seonghwa saw something in one of the stalls. It was a big toothless plushie, like the one he had, but a smaller version.
