Day 2

January 3rd 8:23 a.m.

Blocked my phone number and called Vince. Disguised my voice.

"Vincent Valentine?" I asked, all mysterious-like.

"…………" He didn't say anything at first.

"…………" I was tempted to yell, but I stayed quiet and mysterious-like.

"Yes." He finally answered. "What do you want?"

"Meet me at the fountain in the square at noon." My acting is only getting better.

"Hmph." He said. I assume that means 'yes' in the Vinnie language. I didn't say anything else after that, just hung up. But I know now that he IS in Kalm!

Ninja time, baby!

12:00 (A.K.A. Noon)

Vincent isn't here yet. I'm hiding behind a crate at the moment, being very careful to be quiet. A bird pooped on my shoulder, and I didn't even flinch! I never cease to amaze myself.

12:04 p.m.

Vince isn't here yet. Dangit, it's freezing out here! And it's starting to snow! If Vinnie doesn't get here soon, I'm outta here!

12:10 p.m.

He finally showed up. I think I'll leave him waiting now.

Revenge is sweet.

12:11 p.m.

Never mind, it's too cold out for revenge.

4:23 p.m.

Hotel fee at the bar: 200 Gil a night

A sandwich and an Elixir: 150 Gil

The look on Vince's face when I did a running-tackle on him: PRICELESS.

8:34 p.m.

So, after the running-tackle, I spent the WHOLE DAY WITH VINCENT. I KNEW he missed me! HA.

He was so happy when he saw me, he turned red and had to leave for five minutes to 'control himself', he said.

I told him all about this journal, and he said he would "humor me" and write in it when he has the time! Hear that? He wants to make me laugh!

Then we walked around Kalm, we fought and destroyed a few baddies now and then, saved a few grannies from getting mugged, blah blah blah, etc. etc.

After that he took me to the bar that I'm staying at and he came inside. Turns out, we're staying at the same bar! I just didn't see him because he hit the hay waaaaay after I did, and got up waaaaay early.

I guess once you've slept for like, 30 years it starts to be pretty lame.

I think I'll surprise him and stop by his room!

10:17 p.m.

I surprised out of his wits!

Random thought, but I noticed that he's been wearing the same exact outfit since the first time I met him. He doesn't smell as bad as you would expect someone doing that would smell.

Weird.

Well, I guess I'll hit the hay. I feel a little sick. I sipped some of Vince's wine when he wasn't looking. Ugh.

If I puke, it's Vince's fault for not keeping an eye on me!

11:22 p.m.

Can't sleep. Something Vince said back in his room has been bothering me.

"I've been thinking…" He said after I stopped jumping on his bed. "Now that I am free of my demons, I figure that it is much easier for me to perish." He stood up, walked across the room and looked out the window. "I don't know what else to do with my life. Now that I have avenged Lucrecia, I have found myself feeling empty." He looked at me, like he was expecting me to say something, but how could you say something after hearing something as sad as that?

"There was a light to my feet, a dark past behind me, pushing me towards the future. Now I find myself with nothing. I can't dwell in the past, but I see no future. I-"

"Okay Vince! You made your point! You're depressed! Big deal! Everyone's life is hard! Get over yourself and get a hobby! Oh, Jenova!" And then I left without saying anything else.

And then I cried outside his door.

I think he was trying to tell me that I should help make him happy. That he wants me to be a light to his feet, to show him the way!

I won't leave his side!
