Chapter 524 - The hen party (3)

They both took the train to go around the place. Mika did not waste any time recording the whole journey. She also praised Ryn for being such a good best friend to her for arranging this for her party. She was not even sad that only the two of them were spending time together when usually the hen party would be joined with a lot of girlfriends and even female relatives.

Just having Ryn with her was enough.

Once they finished the trip, both got down from the train and started to walk. They put on the cap on top of their head to protect themselves from the sun. Their hand was holding a bottle of water which Ryn bought before they got onto the train.

"So which one should we play first?" Ryn asked. As this was for Mika, she would let her best friend choose what they would do.

Mika looked around before she pointed at the basketball stall where huge plush toys in the shape of fruits hung all around it.. Ryn nodded and started to walk to that stall. Her mind was thinking of how to win at least one plush toy for Mika. Surely they could not leave empty-handed.

Ryn paid for six sets before looking at Mika who was already recording the whole thing. She smiled.

"I'm going first," Ryn took the ball and took an aim carefully before she threw the ball. It did not go into the hoop but this failure did not put her off. Ryn tried again but the other two tries resulted in failure again.

Mika handed her camera to Ryn so Ryn could record Mika in action. Mika took the ball but instead of throwing it into the hoop, she played with the camera first. Once she had enough fun, she looked at the hoop. Her eyes no longer shone playfully but narrowed seriously.

She threw the first ball. It went into the hoop.

She threw the second ball. It also went into the hoop.

She threw the last ball. Again, it went into the hoop.

Ryn recorded every moment of it.

"Your turn," Mika said happily after she chose the plush toy as her prize.

"I don't think I have luck today," Ryn murmured but she did hand the camera back to Mika so she could do the second round.

Ryn took a deep breath to calm herself. She ignored the giggle coming from Mika/ The siblings were not only genius in education, but they were also genius in sports. Hence, it was not a surprise for Mika to manage to throw all balls into the hoop.

Whereas Ryn, despite her slender body, was bad in sports. But for Mika, Ryn would for any sport even though she was bad at it.

The second round continued. This time she almost managed to get the ball into the hoop, much to the cheer from Mika. 

"Don't worry. You almost got it," her cheerleader was so excited even though the ball did not go into the hoop. And when she had a prize for throwing all the balls into the hoop, her excitement was not as much as when Ryn was throwing the ball.

Ryn took a deep breath and threw the second ball. Again, it just bȧrėly touched the hoop but did not go into it.

The third one went into the ball, much to the amazement of Ryn. Mika on the other hand shouted loudly as she hugged Ryn excitedly.

Ryn won a very small plush toy. To compare it to the huge plush toy Mika won was like a big watermelon and a small grape. 

Ryn sighed heavily. When she thought she could win something for Mika and forgot that she was not a good sportswoman. 

For the third and fourth, Ryn failed to throw any ball into the hoop while Mika threw all the balls into the hoop.

The huge plush toys were arranged beside Mika neatly but her attention was on Ryn who was on the last round. She prayed desperately for Ryn to win this round. Please, God, let her throw all the balls into the hoop.

Ryn threw the first ball.

It went into the hoop and both girls jumped happily. 

Then, with encouragement from Mika, Ryn took a deep breath, focussed on the hoop that kept moving, and once she determined the direction of the hoop, she threw the ball with her heart pounding hard.

The ball went into the hoop.

This time, only Mika squealed happily, Ryn stared at the hoop, blinking her eyes in shock. Did the ball go into the hoop twice in a row? She never thought she had it in her to succeed.

"Ryn, you can do it," Mika cheered her up when Ryn finally snapped from it and took the last ball for the last round.

When Ryn threw the ball, Mika even clasped her hands together like praying as she watched the ball fly toward the hoop. 

After the game, Ryn looked at the plush toys while scratching her head. How could they continue having fun in the park when they had to bring these plush toys? One of these was already half her height. Right now they have to carry six of these toys?

Mika pursed her lips before she walked to the side, taking out her phone.

Ryn frowned but she did not follow her best friend. She thought it was a call from the company. Mika did take a lot of days off and the way she was working right now through the phone call and online. 

"Settle," Mika announced when she returned back to Ryn.

"Your work?" Ryn asked.

"No..." Mika grinned proudly but did not elaborate. She just looked around before she waved her hand.

Ryn at where she was waving her hand and saw two men. One man was wearing a full suit while another one was wearing the park's shirt and shorts; the uniform. Ryn's brows lifted to see the uniformed man push a trolley toward them.

"Young Mistress Long," the man in suits greeted politely at Mika before he turned to greet the still puzzled Ryn. "We will keep them safe. Please enjoy your adventure in Wonderland Park."

Mika nodded her head and then pulled Ryn to another side of the park. She still wanted to have fun with Ryn and those toys would not be the reason to cut the fun short.

This time, they went to the merry-go-round, giggling like two mischievous kids. Then, they tried to do archery and like usual Mika won the huge prize while Ryn didn't manage to win anything. They tried almost everything, even the roller coaster. Mika held Ryn's hand tightly as she screamed whenever the coaster went down and sped up. Even Ryn was screaming with her but their hand never left each other.

"Oh... I'm so tired. But it was fun," Mika said after they safely got out of the roller coaster.

"It's getting late," Ryn said while looking at the time. "Let's go and have our dinner."

"But we haven't tried everything yet," Mika whɨnėd. She did not want to end their fun day now. She still wanted to spend more time with Ryn. She knew by having dinner, it would be the end of this party.

"Mika, don't be like this. We haven't had any meal after lunch," Ryn coaxed gently., She knew what was in Mika's mind. "Besides, we can always spend time together, even after you get married to Jason."

Mika pursed her lips sulkily. She hugged Ryn tightly, refused to move.

"Mika, let's have dinner, okay? I'm starving."
