Word quickly spread of Ambreea taking over the company after the news of her father's death. Now that he has passed and it was on the news, the people stopped coming. There were no more intruders or people following her. We waited 6 months and still nothing occurred. We decided it was time for us to move forward. Ambreea ended up selling the company to Fred. He still keeps in touch with her and lets her know how it's doing, and even calls her occasionally about new projects. He has become a step-in father for her. I judged him wrong when I first met him, he has really been there for her through this process.

Ambreea came to peace with what happened to her father. She still missed him and would have a few days where she was sad, but she doesn't let that stop her from living her life. She is so happy and care free. With each new place we adventure to, she always is able to find some amazing place that is not really known by tourist. She befriends the locals and have them take us to good spots. We already finished exploring the U.S. and are now in Europe, since that was where her dad's favorite places were. We visited them first: Italy, France, and Greece. We spent two weeks at each place going to his favorite spots and finding new ones for ourselves.

Ambreea didn't paint much anymore, she still liked art but more of the viewing it and not creating it. She would get the most inspiration when we were on a beach and she would sketch in her notepad. She, often, would draw me at places we were at. I would sit where she tells me and watch her draw me. He eyes would peak of her notepad as she scanned my body. She would gaze into my eyes trying to find the emotions in them to draw.

I would still play her my music every day. It was like our thing: wake up and play music or go to bed after playing music. She would make up lyrics while I played and sometime, we would try to guess what each other was going to say for the next line. It was all ours, the music.

Sometime, I would think of how I got here. I was just a retired service agent playing some music on the corner of a building when I met this girl. She has completely changed my life. I gave up on my happiness a long time ago, that was until she walked over to me. I have been on a mission to save her, moved in and started working for her, and now traveling the world. She often tells me that my music was the way to her heart, but I think it was her that is now the way to mine.
