The Twisty Turny Splash Surprise

7 min 30 sec

Jasmine Maple, age seven and three quarters, pressed her nose against the bright blue gate of Splashy Sun Water Park while her big brother Leo hopped from foot to foot like a popcorn kernel ready to pop.
They had waited all year for the park’s grand reopening, and today the prize waited inside: the brand new slide called the Whoop de Loop, a neon rainbow tube taller than the school and twistier than Grandma’s cinnamon rolls.

Jasmine’s tummy fluttered with bubbles of excitement and maybe a few butterflies wearing water wings.
The line inched forward, revealing signs that read, “You will forget which way is up!”

Jasmine giggled and told Leo that sounded impossible, because up was where the sky lived.
Leo answered that on this slide, even the sky might end up under your shoes, and he made his sneakers do a little dance to prove it.

When the gate finally opened, a trumpet of water sprayed overhead like a liquid fireworks show, and the crowd cheered.
Inside, waves sparkled, fountains giggled, and the Whoop de Loop coiled above everything like a friendly giant snake wearing stripes of every color.

Jasmine felt her heart drumming as they claimed a locker, slathered on sunscreen that smelled like coconuts doing the hula, and raced toward the towering staircase.
Each step squished beneath their wet sandals, making silly squelching songs.

A parrot-shaped speaker squawked safety rules in rhyme, warning riders to cross their arms, hold their giggles, and prepare for topsy turvy turbulence.
Jasmine copied the parrot’s accent, repeating the rules in a silly squawk that made Leo laugh so hard he snorted.

At the platform, a friendly attendant wearing a hat shaped like a shark fin counted them into a neon orange raft that looked like a giant slice of melon.
Jasmine sat in front, Leo in back, and they pushed off with a splash that tasted faintly of blue raspberry snow cone.

The raft crawled forward, then tipped down a gentle slope that felt like sliding across a rainbow made of giggles.
Suddenly the tunnel swallowed them whole, and the world turned into a spinning lollipop of colors.

Jasmine felt her braids float upward, or maybe downward, because directions had decided to play hide and seek.
The slide twisted left, then right, then performed a loop de loop that made her stomach feel like it was waving from the top of a ferris wheel.

She squealed with delight, and her squeal echoed back sounding like a dolphin telling jokes.
Lights flickered inside the tube, painting stars on the walls that zipped past like comets wearing sunglasses.

She tried to spot which way was up, but the raft spun like a pancake mid flip, and up seemed to be sitting in the seat right next to her doing knock knock jokes.
Leo whooshed behind her, shouting that he just saw his own hair floating sideways, which made no sense and perfect sense all at once.

The raft picked up speed, swooshing through a spiral that felt like being inside a giggly tornado wearing roller skates.
Jasmine’s hands gripped the handles, but even her hands felt confused about whether they were above her head or beside her ears.

Water sprayed in fizzy bursts that tasted like lemon lime laughter.
She heard music pumping through underwater speakers, playing a tune that sounded like ducks performing opera while bouncing on trampolines.

Then came the grand finale: a steep drop followed by a corkscrew that spun them so fast Jasmine’s eyes did somersaults in their sockets.
Colors blurred into confetti, and she felt her giggles stack on top of each other like wobbly pancakes.

For one spectacular second, she forgot whether her feet pointed toward the sky or toward the center of the earth, and she decided it did not matter one sprinkle.
The raft burst through a curtain of bubbles shaped like tiny UFOs and launched into daylight with a triumphant splash that sent a tidal wave of glittering water across the landing pool.

Jasmine surfaced, hair sticking out like a happy sea urchin, and found Leo already laughing so hard he could barely dog paddle.
They floated on their backs, staring at the real sky, which now seemed politely normal after the kaleidoscope chaos.

Jasmine told Leo that up was definitely up again, but inside her head the world still spun like a merry go round made of jelly beans.
They paddled to the pool’s edge, where a lifeguard handed them each a sticker that read, “I survived the Whoop de Loop and lived to tell the tallest tale.”

Jasmine placed hers on her bracelet next to her friendship charms, promising it a place of honor.
Later, while sharing a funnel cake shaped like a tornado, they recounted every twist to their parents, exaggerating wildly by claiming they had spotted flying fish wearing bow ties inside the tube.

Mom laughed and said the slide sounded like her washing machine on circus day, and Dad admitted he once lost his sense of up on a tilt a whirl, so he understood completely.
The afternoon melted into evening, filled with lazy river floats, splash pad dances, and a final ride down the Whoop de Loop just as the sunset painted the sky in colors that rivaled the slide itself.

Jasmine noticed that this time she kept better track of up, probably because her inner compass had decided to come home.
When the park lights flickered on like stars that had forgotten to wait for nighttime, Jasmine and Leo dried off, traded their wet swimsuits for cozy hoodies, and clutched souvenir cups shaped like miniature water slides.

Walking to the exit, Jasmine looked back at the towering rainbow tube, now glowing under strings of lights, and felt a warm swirl of gratitude bubble inside her chest.
She had set out to conquer the twisty turniest slide ever built, and while she had indeed forgotten which way was up for a few fantastic seconds, she had found something even better: a memory that would sparkle in her mind like glitter that refused to wash away.

That night, tucked beneath blankets patterned with smiling clouds, Jasmine whispered to Leo through the darkness that next time they should build a slide so twisty it makes you forget which way is Tuesday.
Leo mumbled agreement, already half dreaming of loop de loops made of laughter.

And somewhere in the quiet house, the sticker on her bracelet caught the moonlight and winked, as if to say the adventure was only beginning, and up would always be wherever joy decided to live.
