Chapter 42: Make it to me

Aria was doing surprisingly fine which no one had really expected.

But no one was complaining either.

They arrived in London shortly after 12 pm and Aria breathed in the familiar sent of her hometown.

"Ahh home."

Kai laughed and Aria looked at him with a frown. "Why are you always laughing at me?"

Julian passed them by and nodded. "Not cool bro." This earned him a scoff from Kai and a thumbs up from Aria.

"Wembley in three days here we come!" Thomas hollered somewhere and everyone joined him, laughing.

"Are we meeting Mason and the others tonight or tomorrow night?" Kai asked Aria.

"Mason tonight and the others in two days after their match! I can't wait!"

Kai chuckled and Aria sent him a pointed look.

They had been given the afternoon off and Kai and Aria drove to their apartment because Aria claimed she wanted to repack a little.

Currently she was pulling endless amounts of clothes out of her closet and put them back in again.

"Wait!" Kai interrupted her suddenly and she stopped. "What is that?"

Curiously Aria followed his outstretched hand to a box that was peeking out of the closet. She sucked in a sharp breath and pulled it out.

"Oh. I forgot that existed." She mumbled surprised and lifted the lid.

Kai was literally holding his breath while he followed her hand with his eyes.

The box was filled with photographs, videotapes, game cards and other stuff that people would wave away as junk.

Delicately Aria brushed over Ted's face on one of the photographs. The picture showed her with him, both wearing germany football trikots, sitting in front of the TV, beaming smiles. "It's my memory box." Aria whispered in awe.

She looked up when Kai carefully took one of the pictures and looked at it. "When he died I put all of his favorite things into this box. I always thought it had gone lost over the time."

Together they went through the stuff in the box, Aria having a little story to almost every item.

Suddenly Kai pulled an envelope from in between the photographs. "What is this?"

Confused Aria took it and turned in her hand from side to side. "I don't know. I've never seen it before."

She chewed her lips and eyed it a little unsure.

"It's addressed to you." Kai pointed out. "Maybe you should open it."

Taking a look at the address Aria ripped the envelope open and out fell a letter. She picked it up and read it silently.

Kai didn't dare breathe as he saw her face light up a little and then he saw her hands shaking lightly.

She seemed to have finished it as she quickly handed it to him. "I'll be right back."

"Are you okay?" Kai asked concerned. She smiled faintly and nodded. "I just need a minute."

She disappeared into the direction of the kitchen and Kai took the time to read the letter.
