บท 155: Holiday (1) & Training

[Archer (Earth) - five years before Archer's death]

Archer stood outside his house in the afternoon sun, waiting for Alexa and her family. They were taking him to France for a week, and he couldn't contain his excitement.

His parents had already said their goodbyes, and his siblings had gone their separate ways for the day. It was just a matter of time before Alexa and her family were ready.

Before long, she appeared by his side, her face beaming with a bright smile. "Hey, Arch, Mum and Dad will be ready soon. They're just waiting for Emma and Amelia to finish getting ready."

He nodded, his brown hair gently swaying in the breeze. "So, how long is the drive to France?"

She tilted her head, contemplating. "Amelia told me it'll take around nine hours."
