Abbi's POV
Today was Jake and I's birthday. However Jake's parents sent us to Grandpa's old house with dad to put things in boxes and clean up. Which ment they were probably planning a party for Jake at home. Jake picked up a photo from a box and stared at it. " Did you find something good? " Dad asked walking over. " Aww. Look at that. That's awesome. You should take that. " Dad said looking at the photo. Jake handed the photo to me. It was a picture of Jake, Grandpa and I when we were little. I took it and put it in the box of Grandpa's photos which. I intended to keep. " Come on buddy. Amber. " Dad said. I sighed. He could never remember my name. I'm pretty sure all he sees me as is a live in servant. " How are you so okay? " Jake asked and I nodded glaring at dad. " Jakey you were a lot closer to him then I ever was, he was a wonderful Grandpa but not such a great dad. You know? He never seemed to pick a job that didn't involve late nights and trips away though. Me and aunt Suzie always kind of though he was cheating on our mom. " He replied. I glared at him and shook my head. Jake looked baffled. " I'm sorry buddy. I know how much you worshipped him but there it is. "

Jake opened the front door and everyone shouted. " Surprise! " Coming out of their hiding places. Our younger twin cousins. Came up to us and said, " happy birthday cousin Jake. " Then their parents came over and said. " J-dog it's great your coming to spend the summer with us. " " Wait till you see the new boat. " " Can't wait, " Jake said fake smiling, then we headed back to our rooms. Just before I went in my room I said. " Happy birthday Jake. " " Happy birthday Abbi. " Jake replied then I went to my room and sat on the bed in silence drawing in my notebook. Until there was a knock on the door. Who could that be? The party isn't over yet I can hear it outside my room, so its not my parents telling me to come clean everything up. " It's Aunt Suzie. " My Aunt said opening the door and coming in. She sat on the edge of my bed with me. She held out a package. " It thought you might want to open this. It's from your Grandfather. I found it while I was packing up. I figured he mentioned to give it to you. " I took the package. " Thank you. " I said. And Aunt Suzie left me in silence once again. I opened it. The was a new leather bound notebook. The ki d I'd always wanted. And a box. I opened the journal and inside the cover, was a note.
' To Abbigail,
And all of the wonderful stories she has to tell.
- Abe '
I cried a little bit and opened the box. Inside was a necklace, with a charm that looks like a dagger. I had seen the necklace before in the box with the old photographs. I put the necklace on. There was a knock on my door again but this time it was Jacob. He came in and sat next to me and showed me a book. It was Emmerson. I opened it and there was a postcard just like Grandpa had said. " Did he give you this? " I asked. Jake nodded. " Yeah, Aunt Suzie delivered it to me a little while ago. " He said. I showed him the journal and necklace. " She delivered these to me on behalf of him as well. But, Jake you know what this means right. We have to go to Wales. " I said.
