[Music: Say Yes To Heaven By Lana Del Rey]
The school fair was loud and chaotic as always. The schoolyard had been transformed into a small carnival with colorful booths lining the field, bright banners hanging between poles, and balloons.
Other kids ran past with painted faces and sticky fingers, while holding cotton candy.
"Want some candy, sweetie?" I asked as I walked to the booth. "I'm sorry, but Reed can't make it; he's still at the construction site."
He was usually here with Esme, and it made her happy. I could only imagine how sad she must be.
"Esme?"
"I'm not looking for Reed," she said as she continued stretching her neck.
"Who are you looking for then?"
"Mister King. He told me he's here now and he's gonna be here for all my carnivals."
"H-He did?"
She nodded. "He's a fairy like me, so no matter what, he's gonna be here now."
I pulled some strands of my hair behind my ear and crouched to her height. "He's not just a fairy, you know."
