"Voila!”Lena exclaims excitedly, stopping in front of the amusement park entrance, done up in seasonal Halloween decor. “This is the surprise!” she says with a grin, hands on her hips.
Lena points up at a banner hanging over the entrance; Halloween Spook-tacular! is emblazoned in black against an orange background, surrounded by the silhouettes of spiders, bats and pumpkins.
“Now, I know y’might be thinkin’ this’s silly,” she says, attempting to preemptively placate her partner, “but give it a shot.” She takes Amélie’s hand in hers and interlaces their fingers. “Y’deserve some fun, luv. Lemme show ya a good time, eh?”
They enter quickly, Lena having pre-purchased passes for the park. On their way in, a young man dressed like a mummy compliments Amélie on her “cool body paint.” The couple stops just inside the gates, multiple paths branching off ahead of them.
“Whatcha wanna do? We could do a ride, like the ferris wheel or bumper cars! Or play some games! There’s prizes!”Lena’s face lights up as she lists of the park’s plethora of attractions. “We could get some faire food if y’want! An’ of course there’s haunted houses,” she finishes, warbling out the end of the sentence in a silly approximation of a ghost.
