Admittedly, Lightning welcomed the break and gave a slight nod, lowering the back end of the wagon. She swept her bangs from her eyes and rolled her shoulders, loosening to aching feeling from having carried the wagon so far. "Hn, yeah, I get it. Wanting to keep hold of something you treasure, because it reminds you of him." She didn't tell Zack but she kept his old Bangle, in her pouch, since he didn't need it. He had that new one and he had his own magic now, so she kept that to remind herself of him. As well as that letter of his...
"I kept hold of a letter from my ex for a good few months... until my best friend found out and I gave it to him. It was a horrible letter anyway," she muttered, closing her eyes with a shake of her head. After a moment to shrug away the thoughts of Genesis, Lightning's eyes settled on Aerith. "So, why'd he leave? Did he even say?" The teen leaned against the wagon, crossing her arms as she looked over to the church. She wasn't a religious person, if anything she disliked religion, but that church really was quite pretty, even from the outside in a place like this.
Slipping her hand in her pouch, she withdrew a different letter, the first she'd thought of. It was in very good condition and it spoke of Zack's affection for her, but she wouldn't show Aerith. She simply smiled at the way her name was written on the envelope - Lightnin' - and slid it away, reaching for what she'd intended to get. A small canister with Serpantwyne from Rabanastre in it. She took a sip before offering it to Aerith.
