Aquarium Date
Ellen's voice rang out through the bustling street, her arm waving enthusiastically in the air. "Come on, Mason!" she called, glancing back at him with a wide smile. Mason was walking leisurely behind her, his long steps not keeping up with her excited pace. She shook her head, laughing to herself as she waved again, urging him to hurry. The earlier discomfort on the bus completely forgotten as anticipation for their destination filled her.
Turning her attention forward, Ellen's grin grew even wider as the towering building of the aquarium came into view. It was massive, with colorful murals of sea creatures adorning its exterior. The sight instantly brought a sense of joy and nostalgia, reminding her of how much she loved aquariums as a child. She stopped in her tracks, her eyes gleaming at the sight before her. Mason, now catching up, stopped beside her and followed her gaze, his expression not quite matching hers.
