" To be honest?" she tilted her head looking at him with a small smile on her face " it doesn't even surprise me. Michelle is a bitch. she can seem oh so very nice but after you've done what she wants, or refuse to do what she wants, you're dead to her. or, in my case, makes your life a living hell." she let out a sigh as she held her cup. the memories to her childhood weren't pleasant but there were a few that did make her smile. " Everything you send me is at Gran's. I didn't want my mom to find it and destroy it."
Finishing her coffee she contemplated having another but eventually decided against it. No way did she want to stay up all night. instead she'd get a hot chocolate. so what the weater was warmer then in New York? January evening still called for a hot chocolate from time to time. atleast... for Hannah they did. Looking at him she smirked " Never trust a pretty woman no matter how kind she is?" she said with a chuckle " or was it another valuable lessons because if so do please tell me. Perhaps it'll stop me from getting my fingers burned."
It was strange how secure and safe Hannah felt around Kaidan. She had only just met him yet it felt like she knew him for years. " Yeah no longer the cute strawberry blonde i was years ago, huh?" she moved her chair toward him to get a better look and smiled when a memory came back to her. "When you go visit gran ask her about the scrapbooks. She always wanted us to make one every christmas for the memories. I'm sure you'll like them."
