Then they're arrived at a haunted house game. She look at Adam. This is the cool game that he mean?

"It's cool right? But don't be scared, I will always walk by your side." Adam patted his chest, showing like he's a brave man.

"Do you think I will scared of this silly game? I thought you will bring me to play the bumped car." Ivy eyes still at the house. Yaa, it does look creepy. But she know, all of the 'ghost' in this house are a human.

"We will go play that thing after this. Let's just play this first. You can hold my hand if you want." Adam held his hand out to Ivy.

"If you think I will shout like hell while playing this game, you're totally wrong. We will see who will be a cry baby once we're out." Ivy said in sarcastic tone. 'Even a child will not scare thoo.' She thought.

"Okay then." Adam said then he go to pay to enter.

"Listen up. This is not a regular haunted house. In this house, you will meet a few road, that will lead you to a different ending. There's a quiz inside this house on every door, you have to answer it, then the door will open. Remember, each door will lead you to a different ending. And of course, there's a lot of 'ghost' in this house." The ticket keeper give some explanation about the haunted house. Then he give a torch light to them. "There're some room that are soo dark. You will need this."

Then they walk inside the house. "Are you sure you don't want to hold my hand?" Adam teasing her. He still think that Ivy will scared like hell in this place. Especially in the dark room.

"No thanks. Let's just find the door."

They're quite for a moment and still searching the door to the next level. Then she see a door behind Adam. There're three door. Each with a different color.

Door no. 1: give a prime number between 20-30

Door no. 2: find a key in this room

Door no. 3: what is the scientific name of a bee

"Door 1&3 out. I'm sorry, but I'm not good at math and I don't even remember my sister name now." Ivy turn around, then try to find the key. Then she hear footsteps. The 'ghost' are doing their job now.

"Heyy. Can't you just answer it? It's a simple question." Adam point at the question on the door.

"If you're so clever, then answer it. Cause I'm just so so so stupid." Ivy continue to search the key. 'Are you afraid now?' Ivy thought then smiling.

"You know what? You can help me find the key if you want to go out from this room."

"Yaa. I will help you, cause we're here together, so we will out together." Adam walk around the room in silent. But Ivy can hear he sigh a few time.

"Where the hell is the key?!" Adam shout in frustrated. Then he turn around. "Arghhh!!"

Ivy look at him. She laugh out loud. It's so funny, to see him like that. His face show him so shock when he see a 'ghost' stand infront of him.

"Get the hell out from my sight! Shit!" He shout again. Then slowly the 'ghost' walking backwards to the darkness.

Ivy still laughing until a tears come out from her eyes. "You're the one who need me here. Poor you."

Adam look at her. His face sour, but slowly he smile. It's the first time he see Ivy laugh happily. Everything happened today, is a first time to them. It's like they're just slowly knowing each other from time to time.

Then they're answer every door together. Even sometimes Adam will scream like hell at her ears. But it's the sweet memories of them. Maybe they can be a friend.

Ivy look at Adam face while he's looking around. She never know Adam is like this. She always thought Adam is a big flirting playboy that she ever meet. But it's all changed since today. He's not so bad. But it's true he like to flirting, but he never take advantage on her.

"Are you hungry?" Adam ask Ivy. Then his stomach growling.

Ivy laugh again. "Let's get some food." They walk together to the food stalls. There're so many choices.

"Let's eat the spaghetti. You should try it. It's not like a spaghetti at a 5 michelin-starred restaurant. But it tastes good." Ivy point at the spaghetti. It's even more than at a restaurant.

"Okay. What will you eat?" Adam ask while ordering the spaghetti.

"I want some pizza and funnel cake."

"You just like a kid." Adam laugh. "Go order your food. We will continue to play the other games after eat."

"Seriously? Then I will go now." Ivy said then she walk to the stalls.

Then they're eating in silent. At the morning, she think this day will be a worst day ever. But now she think it's the best day in her life. After her father died.

After they finish eating. They continue to walk around the fun fair. There are so much interesting games in here. But they can't play all of it, because it's almost 6.00 p.m. now.

"So what game do you want to play next?" Adam ask Ivy.

"Let's play Balloon and Dart. It's over there." Ivy point at the Balloon and Dart game stall. It's decorated with colorful balloon with different size. Each balloon will have different prizes.

Adam look at the stall. He never played it before, but it does look interesting. "What will you give me if I win?" He raised an eyebrow.

"What do you want?"

"I want we be a friend forever. No more fighting, no more misunderstanding, you have to ask me if you want to know something. Not just simply make a conclusion. And maybeee.. We can be more than friend." He smile. He always think that Ivy will be the one that will change him.

Ivy open her mouth to say something, but no words escape from her mouth. She just nodded and smiling. It's not hurt to give it a try. After all, he don't know how to play.

"Okay. Let's go!" They walk to the game. Adam look so energetic. He pay to play the game. Then the ticket keeper give him three dart.

"Every balloon have different prizes. If you get the small balloon, you will only get the keychain. But if you get the big balloon, you can choose one of the bear." Adam and Ivy look at all the bear behind the ticket keeper.

"Which one do you want?" Adam ask her nicely. He's full of confident now. 'It's a simple thing. Just throw a dart to the balloon, and it will pop.' He thought.

"Don't be so overconfident. You never played it before right? So you have no skill in this game. You probably will not win this game." Ivy said and laugh. Even she, who always played this before was not as confident as him.

"You will see." Adam start throwing the dart. It's not get to the target. Then he look at Ivy back. "I just want to warm up." Then he throw the second dart. Same things happened.

Then he start to focus on the target. He want to get the big balloon, so he can give Ivy the bear. He throw the last dart, and he lost.

"I told you not to be overconfident." Ivy laugh. Adam face be so sour. He don't get either the prize and to be friend with Ivy.

They walk together in awkward silent. Both of them did not talking or glancing to each other. Once they get in the car, Adam start driving to send Ivy back to her house.

"Where do you live?" Adam start talking. He's not angry at Ivy, but he just feel disappointed to himself.

"Why do you ask?" Ivy turn to Adam. She realized they did not talking since Adam lost the game. Why does he feel so mad at just a game?

"I will send you home. Or do you want to come to mine?" He smiling flirty. He know it will make Ivy disgusted. "Just kidding. Just show me the way to your house."

Then Ivy start giving him instructions. When they're arrived, Ivy stay in the car for a moment. "Heyy. About what you said before you played the game. You know what? We still can be a friend even you're lost." Ivy said while she look at her hand. It's a little bit awkward to talk with Adam like this.

"Seriously?!" Adam eyes widened then he smile.

"But you can't take advantage on me. We're just a friend. Not more than that. Okay bye." Then Ivy get out from the car.

She still smiling. Maybe at this point, they can be a good friend. After she know that Adam is not as horrible as she thinks. Why not she give him a chance?

"Thank you!" Adam said after he lower the window and waving to her. Then he start driving. And Ivy walk to her house.
