It is now snowing a lot and a white layer has formed on the floor. It was quite cold without a coat, Elena thought. "Okay and now? How are we going to get you back to mom and dad". Elena mumbles as she searches around her. Her eye falls on the rear entrance of the building and decides to see if she can enter there. Elena looks through the window, there is no one to be seen. She tries to open the door, unfortunately nothing happens and the door remains closed.

Together with Freya she stands up a bit under a shelter. "I can always try to reach daddy through Instagram," she says to the little girl on her arm. Elena picks up her phone and looks up Hannes' account on Instagram. She decides to click on the call icon. He passes but is quickly pushed away, she decides to make and send a message with where she is and that Freya is safe and warm but that you cannot enter. Not long after that, there is an answer and a little later you see someone with long brown hair and a black hat on the phone. When he sees Elena he starts to walk faster and happily comes your way. The man shouts something in a language that Elena does not know, but Freya recognizes it, it seems. Her little head comes out from under the large hood and greets the man. As soon as the man arrives with them, he switches to English. "How nice that you found Freya! She escaped during the sound check! " He says in a hurry but visibly relieved. Elena doesn't know what to say, for her there is none other than Chris Rörland, guitarist for Sabaton. "I saw her walking outside without a coat and shoes, it is way too cold outside for a child. "Fortunately, I soon found out who she was and I was able to reach Hannes!" Elena says worried, meanwhile herself shivering from the cold. Chris sees that Elena is also cold, after all she gave her coat to little Freya. "Come on, let's go in, then Freya can go back to Hannes and Floor and then you can warm up a bit, you look cold." Elena nods and follows Chris inside where it is a lot warmer. After a few corridors they enter a room with a concerned Floor. She jumps up when Elena comes in and immediately takes her Freya in her arms. Elena smiles and takes Freya's wet socks from her pocket and puts them over the heater next to her. In the meantime, the rest of the band also drops in. They all thank her and floor hugs her so happy she is.

Elena is asked to join them. The group continues, and Elena looks at it. Even now that she's inside, Elena is still cold wearing only a T-shirt. She puts her arms around her to make it warmer. Meanwhile, Chris returns with 2 mugs in his hands, he gives one to Elena and sits next to her. Elena wraps her cold hands around the warm mug and smells it. "Oh nice hot chocolate" she says happily and carefully takes a small sip to see how warm it is. Chris laughs that she is so happy with a cup of chocolate milk. He takes a good look at Elena, she still has a little blue lips from the cold, he sees. He puts his mug on the table and takes off his own vest and wraps it around Elena's shoulders. "Thanks, but won't you get cold?" Elena asks. "It will be all right, we will change anyway and because of the nerves I get warm anyway, so I need him less than you do now". Reassured that he will not get cold, Elena pulls the vest down and crawls into it, it is way too big and there is still some of Chris's body heat in it, which makes it feel nice and warm. 

Floor and hannes join them, and Freya crawls onto Elena's lap. Elena smiles and wraps her with leftover vest, slowly the little girl falls asleep while Elena rubs her hair. "I'm so glad you found her" Hannes says again. "Are you looking forward to the show tonight?" he asks. With that question, Elena's shoulders drop a lot and she stops smiling. Hannes immediately realizes that there is something wrong and asks what concerns her. "I would indeed go to the show tonight with my boyfriend, I was even one of the first in line!" She sighs. "But the jerk decided to take a friend of his without consultation and give my ticket away. I was actually on my way to the car when I saw Freya walking ". Elena looks at the ground because she doesn't know where to look, she is still angry with Tim for doing this. "That's a shitty action," Joakim joins in the conversation. Hannes says something in Swedish to Par. After looking questionably, Par nods to Hannes. "Don't look so sad, I think tonight you have a better place to watch the show than your friend". Hannes says. Elena looks up in surprise, "but I don't have a ticket to enter at all". Par and Joakim start to laugh. "You don't need one at all tonight, we are the act ourselves, we can let you in if we want to" says Joakim. "Really ? you let me be there? " Elena asks in amazement . "Yes of course you can be there, after what you've done for Freya this is the least we can do for you". "There is one set of values, and that is that you will join us afterwards to go out ". Elena starts to laugh. "That won't be a problem, although I know this city as badly as you do."
