Tears welled up in Agnes' eyes.
She kept whispering, "Mom, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry..."
Before long, Agnes fell asleep.
The next day, Kerri came to see Agnes early in the morning, wanting to take her out for some fun.
But Agnes wasn't really in the mood.
Nevertheless, she was dragged to the amusement park by Kerri.
Brayden insisted on tagging along too.
Agnes was now a public figure.
Whenever she showed up in public, she would always draw a lot of attention.
But luckily, the amusement park was hosting a "Masquerade Carnival" that day.
Every visitor would be given a mask as a small gift by the staff upon their entry.
A lot of people wore it right away.
With the mask on, nobody could recognize Agnes.
Kerri brought Agnes to the amusement park because she was worried that Agnes would overthink things if she was alone at home.
Getting out and clearing her mind might make her feel better and possibly untie the knots in her heart.
The amusement park had always been Kerri's favorite place since childhood.
Whenever she felt down, she would run here by herself.
Playing on every ride, by the time she went home, her worries would have melted away.
Agnes was too scared to go on any of the thrilling rides like roller coasters and pendulum rides.
But Kerri had a blast.
