After replied all the Merry Christmas wish from Alex, Millie and all his friends, he went for a shower. Once he done took shower and having a breakfast, he heard someone knock the door.

"Who will come here for Christmas though" muttered Aaron alone. As he opened the door, he saw Diana was there.

"Hey, Kate. Didn't expect you to come here" said Aaron after he and Diana have a quick hug.

"Hope you love the surprise, Drake" replied Diana.

"C'mon in then" said Aaron. Diana nodded before entering the place.

"So, what's your plan for Christmas?" asked Diana.

"Nothing for now" replied Aaron.

"Great. Then, you have no choice but to spend time with your favourite cousin here" said Diana.

"Sure. What do you have in mind?" asked Aaron.

"First, let's go for a drive around" replied Diana.

"Okay. Let me get ready first" said Aaron as he went into his bedroom and changes clothes.

Later on;

"So, how did you feel for your first Manchester Derby?" asked Diana as they are inside Aaron's car.

"I'm kinda looking forward to it" replied Aaron.

"How much do you think City will win?" asked Diana.

"I think City will lost 3-0" replied Aaron.

"Very confident, aren't you" said Diana.
