Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed

Leda grabbed Roseanne's hand. "Let's go! I've already scoped out the best spots before we even got here. Today, we'll have a blast!"

"Ah!"

"Ah, holy shit!"

Leda's screams echoed in her ear for five minutes. Rubbing her numb ears, Roseanne glanced at her friend, who had just finished throwing up, looking pale as a ghost. She gently patted Leda on the back with amusement and sympathy. "Feeling any better after throwing up, huh?"

"I'm going to... ugh..."

Seeing Leda lean over the trash can again, Roseanne quickly grabbed some tissues and opened the water bottle. After Leda had finished, she handed over the water. She didn't sigh with relief until Leda had rinsed her mouth and stopped throwing up.

"They say the roller coaster here is a slice of heaven for thrill-seekers, but I've just had a tour of hell. Scared me to death." Looking a little queasy, Leda wiped her mouth with a tissue and patted her chest. Roseanne couldn't help but tease, "Who wanted to push her limits? You asked for it."

Despite Leda's mild fear of heights, she had insisted on going on the ride, a classic case of biting off more than she could chew.
