Dear Diary,
I know it's been a long time since I wrote in you, but I think it's time to check back in. Everything has been going well with Aeris and I. Aeris is still cheerful and high spirited as always and still continues to only look on the bright side of things. She still spends her time down at the old church, tending to the flowers that bloom there. But that isn't the only thing she does there…
Do you remember back when I wrote upon receiving notice of my husband's death and that Aeris had only days before said to me that someone close to me had died? Well, as she put it she was able to commune with spirits before the entered the Lifestream. And after all these years, she still speaks to those spirits.
And speaking of reoccurring events, that man, Tseng continues to knock on our door and has the gall to ask Aeris to go with him back to the Shinra Headquarters. All because she's an Ancient and can lead to the Promise Land. But, you would think after 15 years of "no" that they would give up, but I guess that shows the audacity of Shinra Inc.
But the thing that scares me the most is what if they decided to get a little aggressive and barged in here and take her. Now Aeris may not be my actual daughter, but I've learned to love her as such. I don't know what I would do without her and I know I would only worry myself to death if anything would happen to her. Despite all that, she is a strong willed girl who was raised in the slums, so I really don't have much to worry about.
Well, I guess that's it for now, when something interesting happens I will definitely write in again.
