When the roller coaster went down, I was so terrified that I closed my eyes. At that moment, I could only hear the sound of the howling wind, a shrill scream, and Christopher’s voice.
“Eve, let’s scream to vent out your sadness and frustration. Then you will feel happy.”
“Really?”
“Yes. Have I ever lied to you?” said Christopher firmly.
When I parted my lips, a gust of wind blew into my mouth as if it was trying to knock me down and stop me from screaming. However, I stubbornly screamed, “Ahhhh!”
“Say I’m the king of the world!”
Usually, I wouldn’t say this kind of thing. But now, I have been conquered by Christopher, and I felt happy. Hence, I shouted loudly, “I’m the king of the world! I’m the king of the world!”
“Again!”
“I’m the king of the world!”
“I want to conquer the world! I want to be the master of my own life!”
“I want to be the master of my own life! I’m the king of the world!” I screamed.
At the same time, I spread my arms open to release all the suppressed emotions I had been feeling these days. My feelings, much like the roller coaster, went up and down. I laughed, I cried.
I was in the dark a second ago, then I saw a ray of light the next moment. It was so bright that it brightened my life.
When the roller coaster stopped, I was still overwhelmed by emotions. Everyone looked at me with confused looks. Christopher reached out to wipe away the tears from my face and asked gently, “Why are you crying again? Do you know that my heart aches when I see you cry?”
I sniffled. “Because I’m happy.”
