Aria smiled hearing her question, Why did she choose him? She didn't know if she chose Alan but remembering the day Alan took a step to confess irrespective of how her response would be filled, her heart. He chose the vulnerable little Aria to spend his whole life with.
And why did she choose him? She didn't have a single line response to it, she might make it years to summarize why she needs him in her life just like the sun in the day and oxygen to living beings, she can't imagine living her life without him.
Maisy who didn't hear the response saw her gazing at Alan and asked, "You don't love him?"
Aria chuckled hearing her, "There is no Aria without Alan. Even the word love falls behind to define us."
