Both sides of the street were lined with rose bushes that were always in full bloom during this time of the year. Summer liked playing here, and she liked dragging Colin and Michael along here with her as well.
Every time she came here, she would ask for an ice cream cone, and Colin would buy one for her.
Colin exited a shop, handing one ice cream cone each to Summer and Michael before giving me one as well.
I chuckled. He’s treating me like a child.
Summer carefully licked at her cone, lifting her head up to look at Colin. “Mr. Johnson, why do you always buy ice cream for Mommy too? Mommy says that only kids eat ice cream, and adults don’t.”
“Your Mommy is a kid, just like you,” joked Colin.
Summer glanced at Jackson in confusion, going on to ask, “Mr. Jackson is the same age as Mommy, so does that mean he’s a kid? Why didn’t you buy ice cream for Mr. Jackson?”
Jackson nearly spat his water out. “That’s because I’m a manly man. I’m not a kid, so I don’t eat these kinds of things. Your Mommy and I are different—no matter how old your Mommy gets, she will always be a child.”
Summer nodded, although it didn’t look like she understood a single thing he’d said.

That street had also been filled with rose bushes, but this one didn’t have a night market, nor a barbecue stand.
