The amusement park was filled with bright lights and laughter. Akkun held your hand in his as he offered you bits of cotton candy, making you laugh every time he tried to smear it on your nose.

—I'm going to pamper you so much today that you're going to get tired of me —he said with that confident smile of his.

But the real adventure began when, distracted by the search for the entrance to the roller coaster, they ended up in front of a huge red illuminated sign: “The Mansion of Horrors.”

“Is this it?” he asked, scratching his head. —Roller coaster? No way. That looks like a haunted house. —Bah, it's probably funnier than scary. Come on, what could be going on?

They didn't know until they walked in. The moment the door closed behind them, a piercing scream echoed through the speakers, causing Akkun to jump so hard he almost dropped your hand.

—Shit! I didn't expect that —he said, laughing nervously, trying to hide it. —Yeah, right… aren’t you very brave?

They walked down a dark hallway and suddenly, a hanging mannequin fell in front of them. You screamed, but Akkun… screamed too. And louder. So loud that the costumed actors standing nearby even chuckled.

—Who's shouting louder, you or me?! —you complained between laughs. —That was to distract the enemy —he defended himself, grabbing your waist—. Strategic, okay?

As they turned a corner, a guy in a clown mask came out with a running chainsaw. The two of them froze for a second, then Akkun scooped you up like a sack of potatoes and ran off at full speed.
