Korra and I

Chapter 3

Korra's Pov

What Katara said made sense but didn't at the same time. As if Kyomi would commit suicide would she?  Nah parent's intuition she would never be able to even if she wanted, especially if your parent is old, they have a better gut than anybody.

I felt bad the way I left Kyomi earlier so I'm giving her a few hours to herself then I'm going to try to. . to. . .apologize. Wow I've never done that without a adult telling me too. As I look out side it I see the sun dial, it's like 12:40 almost 1 o'clock, about time for lunch. To kill time I head outside to the platform to practice for my fire bending test tomorrow. As I walk out I see Kyomi from the corner of my eye on the roof writing in her diary or something. When I saw her eyes shift from her book to me I immediately looked away pretended to stretch and started practicing. 

Kyomi's Pov

Today wasn't a bad day. I mean besides this is the day of the worst anniversary ever! It wasn't bad. I should do this more often, come sit on the roof in silence with the cool arctic breeze blowing on my face. I took in a deep breath,"This is nice" I mumbled. I was about to head down and maybe steal an apple from the hall but something else caught my attention. "What's this?" In my satule I found a book. It looked like a diary but it wasn't mine, mine was dark brown leather like the one in my hand except mine had the water tribe symbol on the front and my name underneath it in blue cursive. As I looked at closer I noticed how the pages looked kind of worn and how thick it was and all of the bookmarks in it I opened it curiously. I opened the book and looked at the inside of the cover where most people put their name; Aang. Aang? As in Avatar Aang? My father?  I looked at the first page and read the date,"Wow this is like 50 or 60 years old." I mumbled. As I did a little math I found out that my father was 14 when he wrote in his diary first and that the diary is actually seventy-one years old. Wow. I took a deep breath began to read the dead mans diary-

(Aang's young voice while reading) 

Today is one of the best days of my life! Besides the day I was born, meeting monk Gyosto or getting out of the ice burg, winning the war, and asking Katara to be my girlfriend now I can add today to that list!

I chuckled my mother always said he was humoris

Today was the best day ever because today is Katara and I's third year anniversary! She bought me this journal so we can record  our lives or something like that. She is serious about this journal thing she has one too and she is putting aside ten minutes every night to make sure we (I) wright something. I took Katara out to lunch and dinner today I cleared my schedule for her. Today was special SHE is special

I bit my lip as I read those words, it made my heart flutter. I miss him, I wish I knew him like Bumi, Kya and Tenzin did. I flipped some pages and flipped to the second bookmark that was about mid section of the book-

TODAY IS THE BEST DAY EVER! KATARA IS PREGNANT!!

Another best day ever? Well this is like six years later. I keep flipping through the pages and all of the bookmarks were positive all positive. Then I went to the last bookmark-

(Aang's old voice while reading)
Today my little Kyomi is three months old. It is still hard to believe that Katara got pregnant at sixty-seven but I'm glad that little Kyomi is here happy and healthy. She's so beautiful just like her mother and big sister and. .I couldn't be happier.

I was so lost into the next had't noticed that I was crying until my tear fell onto the page . . Next to another tear stain. Was that his?

"Do you see now?" I turned and saw my mother standing behind me with tears in her eyes,"He was a very happy and positive person he would want you to be happy too. As much it hurts me to say it, you need to forget about him, not entirely just partchaly, the bad things." She explained.

I nodded. Then she started to walk away,"Wait the journal." She turned with a smile,"You can have it. You need it more." She walked away and I smiled. She was right he would've wanted me to be happy.

Then almost on cue the bell rang for lunch,"I should probably go apologize to Korra." I thought aloud.
