Dear Diary,
It's been a couple days since Aeris was taken and my heart still cries for her safety. On the bright side, the little girl Marlene and I have gotten to know one another. Though she's only six years of age, she's very self-reliant child. I guess that goes without saying as her father is the leader of the infamous group AVALANCHE. She tells me her father is a sweet and kind man who is always thinking about her wellbeing.
I find that strange as he is in control of a so called terrorist group. But, believe me when I say I have some choice words if I ever meet the man. With that a side, Marlene is very helpful as she helps do chores and even helps me attend to the garden. She definitely reminds me when Aeris was a little girl. Nothing else has really happened so that's it for now.
