October had another sleepless night. She kept thinking about Ahkmenrah. She was starting to have second thoughts, but she was afraid that he wouldn't accept her apology.

She got ready for work then went into the kitchen to make herself some breakfast. Larry was the only one in the kitchen.

"Morning." Larry said. "How is the job going?"

"This is only my second day, but it's going fine."

Larry wanted to ask October about Ahkmenrah, but October gave him a look that said don't even mention it or you're dead so he kept his mouth shut. Once October was done with her breakfast she left for work.

October clocked in then started her rounds. She was taking her time because she didn't want to be by Ahkmenrah's tomb yet. She still was unsure of what she was going to do. She wanted to be with him, but she also wanted a normal relationship and eventually start a family.

When she got to the diorama room she was surprised at what she saw. Next to Jededaiah was an envelope with her name on it. It had to be for her because how many people were named October. She was amazed that no one had picked it up or threw it away.

October opened the envelope and started reading.

October,

I know you are hurting and so is Ahk. You two love each other so much so you should be together. He makes you happy and right now you're miserable. Make up with him. You know you want to. Is this really what you want?

Jededaiah (Teddy helped write the letter)

Who would have known the little cowboy had a romantic side? The last sentence really stuck with October. Is this what she really wants? October sighed. She knew what she had to do.

October got to Ahkmenrah's tomb and stared in. She was a little hesitant to go in, but she made her way to his sarcophagus. October knelt down and started crying. Luckily no one was around.

"I'm so sorry. I was being selfish. I love you and I want to stay with you. It was stupid of me to break up with you. I don't care if we can't have a life outside the museum or a family. I only want you. You make me so happy. I love you."

October then noticed the tablet was on the floor. She picked it up and placed back on the wall. She wiped her tears then left the room not noticing the tablet had glowed. When she got to the lobby she saw her sister. October forced a smile so Rebecca wouldn't ask any questions.

"Hey how's the job going?" Rebecca asked.

"Good. I'm glad I applied here."

Rebecca knew October was faking her smile and she had been crying. Rebecca wanted to ask, but she knew October would only lie. She will talk when she's ready.

"Well, I have to give a tour so I'll talk to you later."

"Have fun."

October had only worked here two days, but she already knew that some kids could be quite a handful. She had to tell a few kids not to climb over Columbus. Where were their parents?

October was about to walk around the museum when she saw Nick come in.

"Hey Nick, what are you doing?"

"I wanted to talk to you."

"About what?"

"About Ahk."

"Oh. I don't think I want to…"

"Please just listen for a minute?"

October smiled at him. How could she say no to him? "All right, walk with me."

"So why don't you want to be with Ahk any more?"

"I wanted a life with him outside the museum."

"Like what my dad and your sister have?"

"Yeah like that."

"Were you happy with him?"

"Of course I was happy. I was happier then I ever have been."

"Then why break up with him and put yourself through this pain?"

October stared at him. For a little kid he sure was smart.

"To tell you the truth I don't really know. I don't want any one else so it doesn't make any sense. I was just so caught up in wanting a family."

"It's never too late to apologize."

"You're right. Thanks Nick, you helped me out."

"Any time."

For the rest of the day October couldn't wait until tonight. She knew that Ahkmenrah heard her earlier, but she was still going to apologize in person. She was going to make things right.

October walked into the African room and saw Rebecca talking about the animals. As the kids were looking at the different animals October walked up to her sister.

"I'm apologizing to Ahkmenrah."

Rebecca smiled. "Really? That's great."

"Yeah Nick talked some sense into me. I'm really happy with him and right now I'm miserable then ever. I was being stupid."

"You weren't stupid. You just wanted a normal relationship. That's understandable."

October was nervous the rest of the day. She was afraid that she hurt Ahkmenrah so much that he wouldn't forgive her. Rebecca assured her that he would forgive her, but that didn't help October. She wouldn't blame him if he didn't forgive her.

Night had finally come and October was reluctant to come in the museum. After a few deep breaths she finally walked into the museum. She looked around but didn't see Ahkmenrah so she figured he was in his tomb.

"October, it's good to see you."

October looked up at Teddy. "It's good to see you too. Thanks for helping Jed write that letter."

"Well, he really wanted you and Ahkmenrah to make up, but he needed help writing the letter."

"That was nice of him. Well, I'll see you later."

October walked to the diorama room and saw Jededaiah and Octavius on the bench arguing about something.

"What are you guys arguing about now?" October asked as she sat down.

"Did you get my letter?" Jededaiah asked, ignoring October's question.

"Yes and I thank you for that. Now answer my question."

"He's going soft." Octavius said.

"I am not. I just don't like seeing October depressed."

"I think he has a soft spit for you." Octavius said to October.

Jededaiah hit him. "I do not."

"I think I know what you two were arguing about."

"So what are you going to do?" Octavius asked.

"I'm going to apologize. It wasn't right what I did."

"That's good." Jededaiah said. "The pharaoh can be moody when he's depressed. He hasn't been out of his tomb either."

"Really? Well, I better go talk to him."

October stood up and walked to Ahkmenrah's tomb. When she got there she saw him holding his tablet and pacing.

October took one step in then back out. What was she afraid of? She caused him pain so she should deal with the consequences.

"Um…Ahkmenrah?" October said as she walked in.

Ahkmenrah stopped pacing and looked up. a small smile appeared on his face when he saw her.

"Listen, I'm so sorry I…"

"I heard you earlier."

"I know, but I want to say this face to face. I'm sorry that I hurt you. I was just being selfish. I really love you and I want to stay with you. I'll understand if you don't forgive me."

Ahkmenrah walked up to October and kissed her. "You're already forgiven. I understand why you did it. I can't give you everything you want."

"It's all right. I don't need a normal life. I love you and the life we have together."

"I love you too."

"So what are you doing with your tablet?"

"I was trying to use a spell to make me alive during the day."

"That's sweet, but you don't have to. I love you just the way you are."

The rest of the night the two of them stayed in the tomb and just talked. October kept apologizing for what she did and Ahkmenrah kept saying she was forgiven and she didn't have to apologize.

Time seemed to go by fast and before either of them knew it it was almost sunrise.

"Until tonight then."

October smiled. "Yes, until tonight."

Ahkmenrah kissed her then headed to his sarcophagus, but stopped.

"Ahkmenrah, are you ok?'

"I don't know."

"What's wrong?"

"Something's different."

"What do you mean?"

"Something just feels different. I can't explain it."

Just then Rebecca came in the room and told October it was time to leave. She stopped when she saw Ahkmenrah.

"What's going on?" She asked.

"I don't know." October replied.

October was confused. What was wrong with Ahkmenrah? She didn't understand what felt different. She didn't feel anything different. What was going on?
