Chapter 3 On the Playground
Early the next morning, Joe was woken up by an excited Carol.
"Qiao, get up quickly, we're going to leave."
He glanced at the alarm clock vaguely, "It's only 7 o'clock now!" Joe replied angrily. He wanted to sleep for a while longer. "It's still early!"
"Come on, come on, get up!" Seeing that Joe was about to continue sleeping, Carol pulled his head and shook it.
Carol's operation made her sleepless. "I've convinced you." Joe had no choice but to get up.
Taking a deep breath and rubbing his eyes, Joe got up and got dressed.
After washing up, Joe came from the second floor to the living room downstairs, where John had already tidied up.
"Have you slept well, Joe?" John asked.
Joe shook his head and replied: "No, I was woken up by someone."
John obviously didn't care about Joe's complaints, and said with a smile: "Young man, let's go eat, let's set off after eating!"
Well, John is also very excited. After all, he doesn't go out often, and today he has to meet his idol, which makes him very excited.
Joe was speechless about the father and daughter. Obviously he should be the most excited one. After all, this was his first time to go to Boston, and it was also his first time in his life! Why were the two people who had been there excited?
I went to the table to grab a sandwich and gnawed on it. While eating, I still thought: "I really want to eat soy milk and fried dough sticks! I miss it."
At Carol's urging, Joe finished breakfast and walked out of the house with his father John and sister Carol.
John ran to the garage, drove out his second-hand pickup truck, and parked in front of Joe and Carol.
"Boys, get in the car." John rolled down the window and said to them. Well, he even brought a toad mirror with him so arrogantly.
It was the first time for Joe to see John dressed like this, and he took a second look with interest.
The two got in the car and set off.
As soon as they got in the car, Carol asked John in a hurry: "Dad, when did we go to the amusement park?"
Joe was speechless, he was just like a child. He sighed silently, saying that if he stayed with Carol every day, he would be finished sooner or later.
"No, things have changed. We may not be able to go to the amusement park." John refused directly. Joe praised him in his heart. He didn't really want to go to the amusement park. He was so old and still went to play with those children.
A device that you love to play with? Childish!
When Carol heard John's refusal, she suddenly wilted. Her head dropped and she lost her previous expression. "Okay." She replied listlessly.
"How about we go meet a friend of mine first and then go to the amusement park after that? Isn't that a good idea?" John said in a bad way. He was just teasing Carol on purpose.
"Yeah, that's great." Carol almost jumped.
"Joe, I will take you to go karting. You can sit in my car, I can drive very well!" Carol said to Joe.
"No." Joe refused coldly. He was not interested in karts at all, not to mention that he was not driving one.
"You want to drive by yourself?" Carol said, "But you are too young. It is very dangerous to have a meeting alone."
"I won't drive, I'll just watch you play." Joe replied.
"Are you really not going to play? It's super fun!" Carol continued.
"No."
"All right."
"Then we can play pirate ship together. That's fun too. Dad likes to play too!"
Joe looked at John who was driving with some surprise. He didn't expect that his father had this side.
The pickup truck drove on the road, drove through open fields, passed through several small towns, and arrived in Boston at around two o'clock in the afternoon.
"Wake up, wake up, Joe, we're here"
Joe was woken up by Carol again. He got up too early in the morning and fell asleep in the car.
"Where are we now?" Joe asked.
"At the amusement park." Carol replied happily.
"Didn't Dad say that he wanted to meet a friend first?"
"We've finished seeing you. We saw that you were sleeping soundly, so we didn't disturb you."
"All right."
"Let's go, I'll take you to play. I've thought about it. Let's go to the roller coaster first!" Carol said. "I've already made a plan! Let's go to the roller coaster first, then to the pirate ship, and the carousel, and finally to the roller coaster.
Play go-karts." Carol took out a note from someone who didn't know where it came from and pointed at it. "This is the fastest way!" She added, "My dad and I discussed it and it's the best way.
, amusement park play guide!”
John nodded aside.
But Qiao just wanted to cover his head. From his Chinese perspective, John didn't look like a father at all to the father and daughter. There was no harshness or reprimand. John was just like being friends with them.
"Okay, let's go!" John shouted loudly from the side, as if he was afraid that others wouldn't know. The passers-by next to me all wore my friendly smile.
They went to the roller coaster first.
When they arrived at the place, Carol took them both and hurried to line up.
"Can I not ride this?" Joe said, "I'm a little scared!" He is a little afraid of heights, and this roller coaster will make him feel insecure.
"Don't be like this, Joe, you are a man, you have to be brave." John advised Joe to be brave. He thought that Joe was really scared. He thought this was a good opportunity to educate Joe. Usually this child is too
Be sensible.
Carol nodded, agreeing with what John said, "I'm not afraid," she said.
Feeling like he couldn't escape today, Joe didn't want to say anything more and lined up with the two of them.
Soon, they went up. Before entering the roller coaster, John put his hands on Joe's shoulders and encouraged him, "You can do it, Joe."
…
After getting off the roller coaster, Joe smoothed his hair that was blown by the wind and looked at John speechlessly.
We had just been riding the roller coaster, and Carol kept laughing. Joe didn't react at all, and passed away as soon as he closed his eyes. Only John was there, yelling, as if no one knew he was scared.
"Teach me to have courage and not be afraid?" Joe thought in his heart. He looked at John with an expressionless face.
"Ah, I'm a little excited. I haven't played for a long time, hahaha." John smiled awkwardly, his legs were still shaking, "It's a little exciting."
"Actually, I prefer the pirate ship. This roller coaster is a little too fast and I feel it's very dangerous." John said seriously.
"No, I think it's just right." Carol said excitedly, "Dad, let's go ride the roller coaster again!"
When John heard this, his face turned pale. The roller coaster ride just now was so exciting to him. Who could stand another ride?
He quickly waved his hand and said, "I won't play anymore. You and Qiao can go play."
"I don't want to play anymore." Joe was really not interested in roller coasters.
