When the summer carnival came in Cape Mary, the whole area waited in anticipation as the huge ferris wheel was set up, a sprinkling of roller coasters appeared and then the tall orange tent for the circus performances puffed out and came to life.
Once the big top was up and it's bright colored flags fluttering in the air, the people knew that the carnival was open.
Kalos and the carnival committee were old friends, so they were allowed a discounted price on everything plus the complementary show tickets for the big top. Ken, as the liaison for the stage, went up to the admissions booth to deal with the general admission tickets.
Leon took a whiff of the carnival food, smelling all sorts of sweets, barbecued meats, and the buttery saltiness of popcorn. The smells brought him back to his earlier memories with Sophie and the circuses they performed at. While they certainly had their rough patches, there were a few experiences that had been pretty enjoyable.
"Here's your bracelet Leon," came his partner's voice.
He pulled out of his thoughts at the sight of a very neon green plastic object in Sora's hand. He spotted the same bright green band around her wrist as well.
"It lets the ride and food people know that we get discounted prices," she explained.
When he still did not grab it from her, she thought to herself that maybe he didn't know how to put the bracelet on. Do they have these things in Europe? She smiled and then stepped up to him, lifting up his hand.
A zing shot up his arm upon contact. He flinched a little. What in the world was that?
Did she have a hand buzzer in her palm?
"You just kind of tear this part but not all the way," she said as she did what she described, "and then depending on how tight you want the bracelet, you put it in the hole where you want it, push the black thing through and then fold this over-snap!-and it's on!"
He looked at the bracelet and then looked at her.
He nodded. She felt her tummy squirm a little, but she took it as hunger.
