After Dylas left for work in the morning, Frey began to clean. She walked around the room, picking up the things she saw on the floor. Mostly trash and clothes, but one item caught her eye. A small book with brown cover, barely seen from under the bed she shared with her husband. She had seen him writing in it before, but not often. But she was curious about what he had written in it...
Looking around, as if afraid she would get caught by someone hidden in the room, she slowly walked towards the little journal. She picked it up and opened it, glancing around again. Then, she began to read.
I don't want to use this, but Porcoline gave it to me as a gift. It's the least I can do, considering he gave me a home and a job. Also, he was begging me to use it all week long. So I guess I have to.
That one girl that "saved" me visits a lot. She always tries to talk to me. I don't know why. I push her away every time. But she comes back. Apparently she's a princess. Being saved by a princess... And she's so small and dainty too! It's embarrassing... Maybe she'll leave me alone one of these days...
-----------
She's still coming. But I'm pretty used to it by now. I learned she has no memory either. I wonder why she's always so happy though. We're almost the same. But she always smiles. Me? I never smile.
I helped her fish today. She didn't know how before and I taught her. I don't really know how I know how, seeing as I have no memories... Maybe I did it before.
I know everyone in town now. Margaret, Kiel, Forte, Lin Fa, Xiao Pai, Porco, Arthur, Vishnal, Volkanon, Clorica, Amber, Illuminata, Granny Blossom, Bado, Venti, that pebble brained dwarf, Doug, and her. Oh, and Nancy and Dr. Jones. Well, I think that's everyone... I'm pretty sure... I'm not really good with the names yet.
I heard that I was once a monster. She defeated me and I turned human. She said it was the hardest battle she had ever fought. Nancy said she was at the clinic more times than she could count. I hurt her. And I don't even remember it... But she seems okay. Maybe it's not as bad as I think it is.
---------
Arthur has such an obsession with glasses.... Almost as bad as Porco with food. But nothing will get as bad as that. Porco has something much worse than a food obsession.
It's weird. She hasn't come by lately. I heard she out fighting some kind of monster. Whenever I see her, she looks exhausted. But she still smiles at me. But I worry. Was it worse when I was a monster? Was it this hard for her? Did I really hurt her this much?
-----------
Apparently Amber was once a monster too. But like the princess, she always smiles. And the new girl too, Dolce. She was a monster. I wonder who was the hardest to fight. Me, Amber, or Dolce.
The stupid Dwarf is so annoying. Doug calls me gelding or horse face. That guy really gets on my nerves...
And she always teases me about it! Saying things like 'the horse and the rider don't get along' or 'like a lover's quarrel?' This girl...
She brought me sashimi today though, so I won't complain. Hopefully she'll stop calling me horse...
----------
She works so hard and still finds time for me. That makes me really happy. Today we fished together. Everything has finally calmed down. No more monsters, no more problems. I still don't have my memory, but it's okay.
I'm happy with my new life. My new friends. My new family. I never thought I would feel this happy, but I am. And it's all thanks to her I think. She makes me happy.
I think... I think I'm falling in love with her....
-------
She.... She likes me. She likes me! She said she loved me!
I had no idea how to respond! I never thought that she would ever like me!
Tomorrow... I'll tell her how I feel... But I'll give her plenty of chances to back out. Maybe she's just confused.
---------
So.... It's official now.... But she's out again. Venti... I'm not fully sure about what's wrong, but Frey is doing something to save her. And she's the only one can.
But I don't want her to get hurt. They're is nothing I can do to help her. She has to do everything alone! What good am I if I can't... I can't help her at all... I honestly don't know why she cares about me so much. I'm worthless.
----------
She's okay now. Venti's okay now. There's a new guy. Leon. He was a monster. Just like me. But even more so than I thought. I have my memory back now. It's all so crazy... I don't know how to describe it... But maybe things will finally calm down. But knowing this town, it's not going to happen...
-----------
This guy... Ethel something. He caused so much trouble. Venti's gone now, permanently I think. I thought everything would be okay. I gave her some of my power. The whole town did. We thought we helped her but in the end.... It was all for nothing. Venti is gone, and she's heartbroken. We all are. I tried to comfort her, but.... Venti was her best friend. There is only so much I can do...
I just hope... One day she'll be happy again.... I miss her smile. I love her smile.
---------
She's trying to bring back Venti. I... She... She fights too much. She works too hard. One day... She'll get seriously hurt... I hope after this, there will be peace and she'll be safe. I... Don't know what I would do if I lost her...
------------
Venti's back.
I love Frey. I want to... Well... I want to do something special for her, and now that Venti's back, it's the perfect time. I hope she'll say yes....
--------
I nearly got killed today. Everyone was angry with me! All I tried to do was make it special for her. A surprise. But I hurt her in the process. That was a mistake.
But at least I did it. At least she said yes.
I proposed.
We're going to get married.
I love her so much.
So it was worth the angry words and almost getting chopped to bits by Forte.
---------
We're married now. It's almost been four years since I started writing in here. I can't believe it... I didn't even want this stupid thing. But I'm happy now. And I have a wonderful daughter along with an amazing wife.
I guess I should thank that idiot for all she's done... One day. She made my life the way it is. She made it good.
After all that's happened, it's finally calm. My whole family is happy. And that's all that matters.
-----
Frey smiled as she closed the little journal.
"I love you too, Dylas..."
"What are you reading, Mommy?" Luna asked, looking over Frey's shoulder.
"Yeah, what are you reading?" Dylas asked. Frey laughed nervously.
"N-nothing Darling!" She smiled, trying to push his diary back under the bed, but he saw it. He sighed and snatched it from her hands.
"You know, these are supposed to be private," He said.
"I love you, Dylas!" She said. He laughed.
"Trying to get out of it?" He asked.
"Help me Luna..." Frey whispered.
"Mommy loves you, Daddy!" Luna said. Dylas just laughed.
"I love you too..." He smiled.
"And I'm guessing you know how much now, since you read this," He said, tapping the little book.
"I want to read it too!" Luna said.
"Oh, I don't think that's a good idea...."
