Time To Explore (Transcript)

After the kids ate, they decided to go around the mall first. Where they saw the Rain Oculus above an indoor man-made river (or canal). It is one of the coolest things they've ever seen.

Tommy: Wow.

Toby: This is so cool.

Raphael: It's one of the coolest areas I've ever seen while in Marina Bay Sands. It is also useful for me to throw coins using my telekinesis. A better way to practise.

Josh: Isn't that a waste of money?

Raphael: It's only a cent. I can also pick it up after I put it in the water.

Zoe: I think it's a good idea to practise.

The kids took out their 1 cent coins and used their powers to put it in the water. As well as taking it out which is good practise for their powers. It might be useful in the future.

Toby: Hey, I think our powers are getting stronger.

Zoe: I know.

Josh: This is completely useful in case Kayla comes.

Raphael: Hayden's missing out.

Tommy: Who?

Zoe: Our cousin?

Tommy: Oh yeah.

Josh: He got homesick so he went back to Australia.

After that, the kids decided to go visit the Esplanade. Just for a quick break before visiting Merlion park because they didn't have time to visit the Art Science Museum.

Josh: I literally thought this was durian.

Raphael: The building does look like a durian. Dad always takes me here to do my singing, dancing and acting.

Zoe: Wait, so they allowed you to sing anywhere here?

Raphael: Yup. Kind of like this.

Song: I Will Follow You Into the Dark by Death Cab for Cutie

Raphael: #Love of mine #Someday you will die #But I'll be close behind #I'll follow you into the dark #No blinding light #Or tunnels, to gates of white #Just our hands clasped so tight #Waiting for the hint of a spark #If Heaven and Hell decide that they both are satisfied #Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs #If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks #Then I'll follow you into the dark #In Catholic school, as vicious as Roman rule #I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black #And I held my tongue as she told me #"Son, fear is the heart of love, " so I never went back #And if Heaven and Hell decide that they both are satisfied #Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs #If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks #Then I'll follow you into the dark #I'll follow you into the dark#

Toby: That's a nice song.

Raphael: Thank you. Let's go to Merlion Park and then Gardens by the Bay?

Zoe: Sure.

The kids went to Merlion Park where they saw the merlion sprouting out water. It is an amazing view despite the hot afternoon weather.

Toby: Look.

Josh: Is that the Merlion?

Raphael: Yup. And it's huge.

Tommy: Woah.

Zoe: Does your dad take you here?

Raphael: Nope, but I kept on hearing people talking about it. This huge statue has a head of a lion and the body of the fish. I heard that the lion head represents the fact that the name, Singapore, means 'lion' while the fish body shows that Singapore used to be a place for fishing. But look at it now.

Josh: I see a city which looks like the Asian version of New York.

Raphael: It probably is.

The kids spent their time talking to each other. It is soon sun set which means that the kids have to go to their final destination, Gardens by the Bay. They have to go back to Marina Bay Sands before evening comes. They finally arrived at Marina Bay Sands and are on their way to Gardens by the Bay.

Zoe: I can't wait to go to Gardens by the Bay and see the Supertrees.

Josh: Have I seen that before?

Raphael: My dad usually takes me there to study plants. It's a thing for me to enjoy biology classes.

Zoe: I love biology.

Josh: So why are we in a rush?

Raphael: The Supertrees would light up at 7:45 pm and it's 7 pm right now.

Tommy: That was fast.

Raphael: We realised that the sun was setting at 6:20 pm.

Tommy: Okay.

Raphael: C'mon.

The kids were walking through the Gardens by the Bay until they reached the Supertrees. Just before they could light up.

Zoe: Wow.

Tommy: They're huge.

Josh: Taller than me though.

Zoe: (laughs)

Raphael: Let's sit down before the supertrees start glowing.

The kids find a seat somewhere below the trees. Zoe sat a little further than the others because she wants to spend some time alone. Before Toby decided to sit next to her.

Toby: Hey, can I sit here?

Zoe: Sure.

Toby: The trees look nice tonight.

Zoe: They'l look even nicer once they light up.

When the time comes, the supertrees light up and the sight is beautiful. They started playing some songs, especially classical songs. Toby found the time to try to confess his feelings.

Toby: I just want to tell you something.

Zoe: What is it?

Toby: I really like you.

Zoe: Really?

Toby: Yeah. You want to, you know, sing your feelings?

Zoe: Well, yeah.

Song: A Thousand Years Pt. 2 by Christina Perri and Steve Kazee

Zoe: #The day we met #Frozen I held my breath #Right from the start #I knew that I'd found the home for my #Heart beats fast #Colours and promises #How to be brave #How can I love when I'm afraid to fall? #Watching you stand alone #All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow#

Zoe and Toby: #One step closer#

Zoe: #I have died everyday waiting for you #Darling don't be afraid I have loved you #For a thousand years #I'll love you for a thousand more#

Toby: #Time stands still #Beauty in all she is #I will be brave #I will not let anything take away #What's standing in front of me #Every breath #Every hour has come to this#

Both: #One step closer #I have died everyday waiting for you #Darling don't be afraid I have loved you #For a thousand years #I'll love you for a thousand more #And all along I believed I would find you #Time has brought your heart to me #I have loved you for a thousand years #I'll love you for a thousand more #I'll love you for a thousand more #One step closer#

Zoe: #I have died everyday waiting for you #Darling don't be afraid I have loved you #For a thousand years #I'll love you for a thousand more#

Both: #And all along I believed I would find you #Time has brought your heart to me #I have loved you for a thousand years #I'll love you for a thousand more#

Toby: So, you love me?

Zoe: Of course I do, why wouldn't I?

Toby: (chuckles) I love you, Zoe.

Zoe: I love you too, Toby.

Both: (kisses)
