After getting out of the parking lot and walking along the aisle for a while, a long line of people along with the ticket office of the amusement park appeared.

I felt a little nostalgic, perhaps because it was a revisit for the first time in almost several years, except for the fact that I came here for a picnic when I was in middle and high school.

No, when it comes to nostalgia, I didn’t have any friends when I was in school, so it’s not all about wandering around alone.

Still, the bubbly atmosphere unique to amusement parks and the sweet smell of cotton candy mixed with the smell of cotton candy made the old man who ate 28 turned into a child.

Anyway, I tried to join the ranks before there were more people, but I felt pressure from the sleeves. Dasom was the older sister.

“Why is that, sister?”

“⋯⋯.”

“Oh, before we go in, would you like to buy some water? It is expensive to buy inside.”

Shaking her head shallowly, the older sister licked her lips and opened her mouth.

“That ⋯⋯Dojin, you are resting nearby. My sister will go alone.”

“yes? why?”

After hearing my words, Dasomi noona rolled her eyes, as if it was an unexpected reaction, and continued to speak cautiously.

“Why, why? It’s because I’m sure Dojin will hate you. You would be angry just because of me having a golden holiday, but now you have to take a strange photo together⋯⋯? That, Dojin, you don’t have to worry about anything. My sister will take care of everything.”

It was a word that quickly explained the gap between my sister and me.

And from now on, I’m going to pull out that thin copper cord.

“It was definitely unexpected.”

“Yeah, Dojin, you don’t like taking pictures, do you?”

Obviously, in the past, I hated having my face taken on camera. To be honest, I hated seeing my face.

However, as a result of someone living somewhere constantly taking pictures of my face, I have now reached a level where I can handle it.

At least he understood why people were taking pictures.

“by the way.”

After all, I wanted to say this to my sister right now.

I just came to play with my sister.

So, I wanted to prove that the reason I’m with you right now isn’t just a feeling of sympathy or responsibility.

No, I had to prove it. Even to get rid of the colorful insects that crawl out of my mind whenever I see my sister.

But even if I said something like this in a situation where I lost trust, my sister wouldn’t believe me, so I decided to use a little trickery.

“I wanted to come and see you at least once. With a close friend⋯⋯.”

“uh?”

The older sister, who understood what I meant, hurriedly covered her trembling lips with her hand. However, it was difficult to hide the scorching heat that erupted through them.

From now on, my sister will never turn down any offers that come out of my mouth.

In a way, it was also what my sister was most desperately hoping for right now.

“Hey, lie. I came here for a picnic when I was in school.”

“⋯⋯That’s because I don’t have friends. I was just wandering around and going home.”

“Yeah, it was. Sorry for asking without thinking⋯⋯.”

But not everything went bad. Because it was half true.

always wondered How does it feel to go to an amusement park with a close friend?

My parents never came with me because I was busy, and I was alone when I was in school.

At least, the amusement park didn’t come even when I was in a club club, when I started hanging out with people, and the reason was as follows.

He said he didn’t go to the amusement park since he vomited to the person in front of him on the roller coaster where he was mining, and Minseo Oh was a style that stuck with him unless he suggested it first. Not to mention Yu Ga-ryun, who was very fearful.

The majority of clubs are like that, so it goes without saying that the story of the amusement park fits easily.

“Well then.”

Anyway, the older sister who listened to me wiggled her fingers for a while, then glanced over here and stuttered.

“Well then, I mean. If only Dojin is okay with you.”

Her older sister’s hesitant eyes turned to this direction.

“Would you like to go around with my sister⋯⋯?”

* * *

The amusement park on the weekend was filled with various human figures.

Families out for a picnic, friends of the same age who crawl out in search of moderately thrilling entertainment, and finally, couples who are busy taking pictures with the park in the background with the rides behind them.

If so, how do my sister and I appear in the eyes of other people? As I continued to think for a moment, the older sister who was ahead of me stood tall.

“Dojin-ah, let’s start with this.”

The older sister turned around and smiled broadly. It was the brightest expression on my sister’s face I’ve seen in a while.

To this, I wanted to respond with a smile too.

“⋯⋯ Sister?”

“yes?”

“You want to type this?”

“yes!”

“Aren’t you just taking pictures?”

“Yeah, why⋯⋯?”

Behind her sister, who blinked her eyes in bewilderment, the laughter of young children came from behind.

A cylindrical roof with twinkling lights and pure white wooden horses spinning under it.

It was a merry-go-round.

“A little merry-go-round at this age.”

“Dojin, have you never ridden before? Then you should ride When I go to an amusement park, I usually ride the merry-go-round.”

I’ve been treated like a baby strangely ever since. It is true that I have never ridden it.

“Hey, it’s not because your sister wants to take a picture of Dojin riding the merry-go-round⋯⋯?”

Dasom, who took out the DSLR camera from her arms, said while sniffling. It was a voice with a strange sense of pressure.

Of course, I could have done anything for my sister, but if I just listen to her like this, it’s a return to origin. I have to have fun today too.

“Then shall we ride together?”

“uh?”

Her sister’s face lit up again. It’s an atmosphere where you shouldn’t joke about eating and laughing.

I smiled broadly and grabbed my sister’s arm.

“Let’s go, together. They say that when you come to an amusement park, you start with the merry-go-round. If you want to enjoy it, you should enjoy it properly.”

“Ah, no, pictures! If I ride, who will take the picture?”

Taking the camera from my sister’s hand, I asked a couple to take pictures near the entrance.

They happily accepted my offer with a bitter smile as if they were a little tired.

“Come on, Dojin-ah. Me, I will be 30 the day after tomorrow, right?”

“Then what about me? Next year I will be twenty-nine.”

“Are you and me the same? Even if our Dojini is still 15 years old, I can’t believe it⋯⋯.”

It was a moment when the standard of age inside me was twisted. At this point, I wonder how I look in my sister’s eyes.

“Okay, let’s get going. The kids are waiting behind you.”

I used the kids swarming from behind as an excuse to pull my sister’s hand.

* * *

“I filmed it, but it came out really, really, really well. Both of you take pictures very well, really.”

The woman with a lively atmosphere handed the camera and smiled busily. Seeing that he was wearing a school uniform, he must have been a student. Or it’s just a casual couple who came to enjoy a date in school uniform.

“thank you. This is really, how should I give thanks⋯⋯.”

“Heh, then, please take some pictures of us at this time. Seeing the two of you makes me want to ride.”

At that word, the expression of the man standing behind him became pale blue. Unfortunately, there was nothing I could do.

“Baby, this time calyx, hurry up!”

I was taking pictures of the horror that I couldn’t see when I opened my eyes, and a thin breath came out from the side.

“I wasn’t like that, am I?”

The older sister, who had been muttering with her mouth covered with a shocked expression, hurriedly turned her head as soon as our eyes met.

Of course, there was nothing to say about how the photos of young people in their late twenties, who were tired of being fat, caught among innocent children, with stiff expressions and postures, would look.

“It was worse.”

“What⋯⋯?”

My older sister, whose face grew red from a single word that seemed to pass by, immediately ran around and tried to take the DSLR camera that was hanging from my neck.

“Gee, erase it.”

“Then delete my postcards from my sister’s gallery first.”

I had no way of knowing exactly how many, but my sister had been taking a bunch of humiliating pictures of me under the pretext of being cute.

In a way, what I am doing now is also a kind of revenge.

Very timid and petty revenge.

“You’re a postcard, how cute is that⋯⋯!”

As I reached out in a playful way, my sister shook her head as she embraced the cell phone she was holding. It looks like it’s protecting some kind of treasure.

“Then you shouldn’t delete this either. Because it’s cute.”

“⋯⋯.”

The older sister, who had been looking at her cell phone and DSLR camera for a while, said with her eyes tightly closed.

“No, do what you want. Instead, I can never erase it.”

I’ll come out like that.

If that’s the case, I’ll also take a bunch of cute pictures of my sister during the day.

With that promise, I wrapped my DSLR camera around my neck and grabbed it.
