Home sweet home is what Papa said as soon as they stepped into the snug apartment, tomorrow morning Papa would leave for work and leave Ami to explore the city.

The next day Ami woke up and as soon as she way the new york skyline out of there one small window she knew, this is where she belonged. Plus she saw a huge soccer stadium next door.
