Chapter 77
Terry
1 sat up immediately from the bed. Today was Saturday and I had totally forgotten about the outing. I picked up my phone and saw missed calls from an unknown number, and from Ana. The unknown would probably be Quinn. I checked the time and it would almost be noon.
“Sh*t*” I cursed. I had always been early to any place I had to go. Well, I couldn’t blame myself, the people I was going with probably were the cause. 1 hurriedly took a bath and got dressed up, I didn’t bother to have breakfast. I called Ana’s line..
“Terry, where did you keep your phone? We had been calling, worried. But I knew you were alright, you most likely just overslept like a pig would Well before you pounce on me, get to my house real quick. Quinn and the boys are here already.” She said
“Since when did Quinn and his nephew arrive?” Lasked.
“A few hours ago, they’ve been waiting.” She said.
I drove to her house like a mad person, they were already prepared.
“Uncle Terry, why did you waste so much time?” Moon questioned, pouting.
“I overslept my dear.” I said.
“Welcome Terry,” Quinn said, and I looked at him cautiously before muttering, thanks. Junior, on the other hand, had been silent and was only grinning me. I didn’t even look at him
“I guess we can leave now.” Quinn said, standing up. Just then Ana walked down the stairs.
“Terry! You had us worried. I thought you might have been kidnapped and even wanted to come save you.” She exclaimed.
“Yeah, yeah as you can see, I’m alright. And I wonder how I’ll be saved by a Hyena if I get kidnapped.” I said, tilting my head to the side as if thinking.
“Just the way I wondered who would kidnap a pig” She said, gritting her teeth and glaring at me.
We soon headed out
“Where should we go first!” Moon asked excitedly.
“You kids should pick” Quinn said.
“Let’s go the an
amusement park.” Moon gushe
gushed.
“Alright, the amusement park it is Quinn concluded.
“You didn’t ask me where I want to go!” Junior asked.
“Moon has already picked a place. If we leave there early, and there’s still time we’ll go to your place of choice.” He said to him.
“So who would drive? Mr or you?” Quinn asked.
“Me. Let’s use my car.” I hurriedly said.
They entered and I drove to the amusement park.
creached there, and we paid at the entrance before being let in
“Ah. I can’t believe I’m doing this. Amusement park are for kids. Junior exclaimed.
“I know right? I picked the best place for us kids Moon gushed, oblivious of what junior meant. I noticed that Junior was quite. Should I say beloved today!
As we walked, I could feel prople’s gazes in us. They had probably recognized who we were, I saw some secretly try to take pictures, but I stopped theim with a glare.
People were lining up at different ride. Personally, I hated the rides at the amusement parks. I hoped I’ll scale through today.
“So which ride do we go to best?” Quinn asked.
“The Ferris wheel” Junior replied, grinning mischievously.

I saw something flicker in Quinn’s eyes for a moment. Was it fear or just my imagination”
We joined the line and were given a cable. Junior held moon hands and sat together on the other side of the cable, while Quinn and I had no choice but to sit beside each other. It was a four–seater cable.
I gulped as it began moving. I looked at Moon and Junior, they were enjoying themselves as the wheel moved. What was there to enjoy in this? As it moved, I felt like my soul would jump out. I could see Junior grinning at me mischievously
He had done this purposely, he must have noticed my discomfort and thus picked the Ferris wheel. I shifted my hands slightly to hold something. I didn’t know it was Quinn’s hands 1 held. I felt the thing I held tighten, and I looked up to see Quinn.
was pale, and he had a neutral expression, he looked stiff. Wait, don’t tell me Quinn Winfrey was scared of Ferry wheels too?
His face wa
I almost laughed but I held myself. Now I get, Junior must have known about this.
“Wait, are you two holding hands, or it’s my eyes playing with me?” Junior grinned, rubbing his eyes.
“Woah, you guys are really holding hands. It wasn’t my eyes. He exclaimed.
“Don’t tell me you guys. He trailed off
I immediately removed my hand from Quinn’s Quinn jerked in surprise too. I glared at Junior.
“Moon dear, are you thinking what I’m thinking?” He asked. For the first time, Moon cast us strange looks which made me feel the need to explain even if I did nothing wrong
“Teh, what a pity. And here I was, thinking of pairing you with Moon’s mum. Who would have thought.” He sighed exaggerating.
The f*ck is this kid talking about. Was he trying to say I liked Quinn or something!
“Oh, I sec. I see why you both didn’t want to talk much to that day that our school had an event. It’s because you guys had fought, right?” He giggled, “So uncle Terry likes uncle Quinn. I would have to give you my blessings then.” Moon said with a serious expression on his face.
This I’ll make sure to inform my mom and of course Moon’s mom as well.” He said.
My eyes widened at this. He continued as if he hasn’t
hasn’t said enough.
“C’mon, you don’t have to be shy now, do you?” Junior giggled.
“Enough Junior.” I heard Quinn say, gritting his teeth
“Enough! Enough of
f what? What did I do?” Junior asked, putting on an innocent face.
Soon the Ferry wheel stopped to my relief and I sighed. The doors to the cable automatically opened, and people began to alight in an orderly fashion Junior took Moon’s hands and alighted the cable.
I jumped out of it and Quinn followed, I was glad to be outside.
