NOTE: I'm afraid this will be my last post before I leave. I want to thank everyone who has followed it this far, and I ask that you please leave some feedback. The next time I'll be home is June 19th, only for an overnight stay, but there will be an update then.
Other days to expect updates are: July 3-5, July 17, July 29th, and anytime after August 6th.

**KRIS' POV**
I didn't know who this girl was, but I didn't like her. She looked afraid to see me when I opened the door, then disgusted when she realized my purpose there. From what she said to April, I gathered that she was Bryan's twin sister.
"You," The girl turned to look at me with anger, "You think you can just waltz in here and replace him? Well, you've got large shoes to fill my friend. He was her world, still is."
I looked at April who was staring into space, tears forming in her eyes. I didn't know what to do, I didn't even know how to appraoch this girl.
"Um, miss, I think I should properly introduce myself," I was throwing out all the charm that I could, "My name is Kris Letang, I work..."Other days to expect updates are: July 3-5, July 17, July 29th, and anytime after August 6th.

" You're a Pens defenceman," She said it so sharply, but her tone quickly changed, "You were Bry's favorite, he loved your style of play, being a d-man himself." Her eyes changed from a look of anger to a look of sadness.
"Jen," April spoke quietly for the first time, "please, don't start this right now. Please. I've shut so much of him out, it was the only way to let go." Jen stared at her before she spoke again.
"But, you remember, don't you? You have to remember how much he loved the ice. You have to remember that glow he had about him when he w
I watched as April closed her eyes, trying to stop the tears that were rolling down her face.
"April, I didn't come here to hurt you, and if I did, I'm sorry, but I just need to clear something up for me." Jen walked to April and looked directly into her eyes."Just tell me you don't love Bryan anymore, and I'll leave you alone."
April froze and closed her eyes, fighting back more tears. A few minutes passed without a response.
"That's what I thought." Jen spoke harshly as she turned and headed for the door, but stopping at the picture of Bryan and April. She pulled what I recognized as April's engagement ring out of her pocket and placed it next to the picture. "I found that at his grave, you might want to keep it." With that, she was gone. I didn't know what to do, or think.
April made her way to the couch and sat down. Within seconds, she started sobbing. I did the only thing I could think of, I sat next to her and held her. My mind wandered to the night at the arena when Carcillo bothered her. That night, as I held her while she cried, I wished that I could be the shoulder she cried on. But I never expected this."But, you remember, don't you? You have to remember how much he loved the ice. You have to remember that glow he had about him when he w
