Finally the day came and you entered the mirror landing at the feet of the carnival. The air smelled of popcorn and sugary treats, with the distant sounds of carnival music and laughter filling your ears. Kalim, being the rich boy he is, offered to pay without any hesitation, buying the passes and tickets without a second thought.

Having never been to a non-magical park, he looked at everything in awe - his eyes wide like a child seeing fireworks for the first time. He gasped audibly when he spotted the large Ferris wheel towering above the other attractions, its metal structure gleaming in the sunlight.

"What's that!?" he exclaimed, looking at you with wide eyes filled with figurative stars. As you explained what a Ferris wheel was, he only seemed to get more excited, jumping up and down quickly once you finished speaking. Seeing his obvious excitement, you asked if he wanted to ride it first.

The sun-like boy nodded frantically, getting a cute wide-eyed puppy dog look before grabbing your hand and pulling you eagerly toward the line. His hand was warm in yours, his excitement palpable through his quickened pace and the way he kept glancing back at the Ferris wheel with pure joy.
