"Hey don't be sad. It's not like you won't see me again. We can always talk over the phone whenever you miss me. I promise to never ignore your calls no matter how busy I am. You will always be my proirity." Andrew sincerely promised as he lightly pinched her cheeks to cheer her up.
How can Andrew not understand the sorrow she was feeling at that time. Afterall, his own emotions were very similar to hers. Just the thought of leaving Aria alone made his heart ache teribbly. He may be only 10 but he understood himself and his feeling very well.
He knew the attraction he was feeling towards Aria wasn't just a crush or a childish bond. It was something much deeper and stronger than that. He may not be able to name this unconscious desire to be near her all the time and protect her from all the evil in the world, but he was sure of one fact which was Aria was definitely very special to him and he planned to shield this for a lifetime.
