Chapter 40 - Love And Lie (2/2)

Nina always wanted to ride in a carousel so she chose that first. Then they tried the bumped car, next was the roller coaster. They also tried the horror booth. It was funny because she found out that Andrew hated it, he was a scaredy cat. Andrew saw that there was a planetarium and an ocean exhibit so he pulled Nina to watch it with her.

She was so amazed with the planets and star show. When they went inside the booth, everything went dark and all you could see were sparkling lights. You will really feel that you were floating in the galaxy.

”Oh my god! This is amazing!” She exclaimed.

”Do you like it?” He asked.

”Are you kidding? I loved it.” She answered.

He was looking at her and he felt his heart skip when he saw her smiling. It was a genuine smile and wasn't fake. He was happy to see her enjoying it.

After the planetarium and ocean exhibit, they last rode on the ferris wheel. You could see the city lights from above. It stopped at the top and Nina was in awe seeing everything.

”Are you happy?” Andrew asked.

It wasn't the first time he asked her if she was happy. She frowned when he asked again. She looked at him and saw sadness in his eyes. For some reason, she felt anxious again seeing him look like that.

”I'm happy. Why do you always ask me that?” She asked.

She felt like there was something bothering him. Did he find out what happened to her earlier? She bit her lips and felt guilty for not telling the truth. And worst, she told it to someone she just met and to a man to be exact.

Is he mad? Will he break up with her because of that? She lied to him. She was always talking about trust but what has she done?

Did he take her on a date so he could break it to her gently? To give her memories for the last time? She always saw it in dramas, movies and books. When someone wants to break up with their lover, they would take them out on a date then will ride in a ferris wheel to drop the bomb.

”Then why did you lie to me? You still don't trust me?” He asked in a sad voice.

Her eyes widened and her heart started pounding loudly. She gulped, clasping her fingers to calm herself.

”Babe, I-I didn't mean to-”

She couldn't continue when she saw him turned his face away from her.
