[From the look of the scenery, Aya is under a shade tree in Espoir. She sits with her back against the trunk, the breeze brushing her hair against her neck.]

Last month it was Omi. This month, Sena.

One by one, it seems my family here is disappearing. It's unsettling, a little. Who's next, will it happen on the same schedule... I wonder.

Oh, Luffy, I don't think I can. I haven't even met him outside of Somarium, and I'm not sure I'll get the chance. If we don't keep our memories of here once we return home...

[stillneedsakiss]

[The firmness in Luffy's voice is attention-grabbing. His words are just heartbreaking. It does make her think of something, though.]

...Luffy, what is it that you want to remember, so you can change it?

[stillneedsakiss]

I don't want to forget either...

You'll get them all back, Luffy. I believe in you 100%.

[stillneedsakiss]

[Despite herself, she smiles a little.]

That'll mean either keeping my memories or relying on fate to have our paths cross at home, and for me to somehow learn what I know from talking to him here.

I guess more unlikely things have happened, haven't they?

[stillneedsakiss]

[A nod.] Okay.

[stillneedsakiss]

[Well that perks her right up.]

Zoro's back? How did I miss that?! I'll have to stop by soon. Does he remember being here?

[stillneedsakiss]

[Aya grins.]

Yeah, he is! I'll drop in soon as I have a good chance. I want to reintroduce myself.

[stillneedsakiss]

[Aya just giggles. Her first meeting with Zoro had been fairly brief, but he hadn't seemed all that glad to meet her.]

Well, maybe this time he will.
