"Can we go? How about now? Can we go?"

I huffed, a bit irritated. "Be patient."

"I've been waiting for hoooooouuuuuurrrrssss!"

"I know."

But he was agitated at my simple response.


"Thank you for bringing me, Espio!"

I did not respond, not too pleased with the current circumstances.

He imitated my voice in his own childish way," Oh, you're welcome, Charmy." He giggled at this attempt, but frowned a bit when he looked my way.

" Secretly, you like the carnival, too! Who doesn't like cotton sugar? And spinny wheels?! And fun stuff?!"

"Me…"

"Aww, why?"

"I don't care for those frivilous things."


As we walked through, he suddenly pointed and shouted, "A ferris wheel! Come on, Espio!"

I followed him , and I was a bit startled to find that the minimum of riders was…two.

With a sigh, I boarded the ferris wheel with him.


Afterwards,

"Wasn't that fun?!" He asked me, looking eagerly for a smile; a change in composure.

Well, what could I do?

I laughed. "Yes, it was, Charmy."
