Elina's POV

It's been a week, since the wedding also since I last spoke to Aaron. Since Dad and Rose went on their honeymoon, which was to visit Rose's family in the United States but they are back now.

I had decided to stay with my grandma here in London who is at a care home, which turned out to be a lot fun, since she let me do whatever I wanted which mainly included heading to the UCL to train with Sean and Dylan also since I won the championship it resulted to me getting my own training space away from people as well as a lot of fighters wanting to test how good I was, so they would challenge me to fight.

Each day I learn new moves on how to defend myself, or how to attack my opponent. I would go and hang out with my friends, but they all seem to be at different corner of the world and they come back just before school starts.

To be honest it was either to stay with my grandma or I'd have to spend the week with Aaron and Matt at their aunt's place and have a 'get-to-know-each-other-week'. I'm pretty sure Aaron wouldn't have been home most of the time and I would be having the most awkward conversations with Matt and their Aunt's family, since I'm such an awesome social person -Note the sarcasm-

Today all of us will be moving into the new house that Dad and Rose has purchased, which apparently is a 5 bedroom each bedroom has their own bathroom. Then there is a living room, kitchen, a hangout area in the basement which has a gym area in the next room, a garage and storage room.

I mean currently I live in a 3 bedroom house which is pretty big and so does Aaron's family, I only know this since I have been in their house for dinner. But since Aaron wasn't ready to share with Matt since he needed his "personal" space which we all know what he really meant by that.

Then my dad turned to me on sharing which I denied saying I'm a "growing woman" and actually need the privacy. So Rose and Dad came to a decision that they would sell both the house and buy a bigger one together.

To say I'm excited would be an understatement, but I knew this would happen sooner. I sigh as I tape the last box  which had "Personal Items" written in bold as I finished; I feel a hand placed on my shoulder, I turn my head and see my dad standing there with a small smile.

"Sup dad?" I questioned as I carry the box to the door where all the other boxes were.

"Elina... I know this must be hard for you. You must think that I have forgotten your mum and don't love her anymore, but you must understand that I still love your mum dearly, however if I don't move on... then the pain would just increase" He said standing at the same spot as he watched my every move.

I stopped what I was doing and faced him with a genuine smile "Whoa Dad you don't have to explain this to me. I might not understand now, but I will soon one day" I walk towards him and hugged him "But what I do know is that mum would want you to be happy. So as long as you are happy... that makes me happy dad" I said a bit quietly, I felt his arms wrapping around me and gave me a tight hug. I tried not to flinch under his touch since I have a fresh bruise near my rib area.

Once he pulled back he looked into my eyes grabbing my shoulder softly "Oh Eli, you are so much like your mother. So intelligent" He said kissing my forehead, I smiled "You know it" I joked, which he chuckled.

"That's the last box?" he nodded to the box that I just placed into the pile, I nodded "Yup" I replied as I looked around into my now empty room "Alright I'll tell the guys downstairs to start placing your boxes into the van" He said kissing my forehead again and started to walk out of my empty room
