May 25

Jeremy,

I spoke with Alison today. She seems to be moving past the debacle at Spinster, but I don't want to make any assumptions. One month may sound long, but the mind has a way of warping time. Hours pass like minutes, months like days.

Your letter dated May 12th feels like it arrived just yesterday. How are Eliza and the baby doing? Have you chosen a name for your handsome son yet? His...

There’s no curse more twisted than love. She knocked me down, my head pounding as it fell on the icy gound with a thud. She looked at down at me like I was less than human. Like I was just another body to her. I try to pick myself up, but she kicks me, my side throbbing with pain almost immediately.

I hate to admit it, but I’m happy. I’m happy that she’s the last person I see before I draw my fin...

I grimaced when trying to stand up

Light filtered through the small widow above the bench now that it was morning I had to get back to the mission I tried again but collapsed from exhaustion.Naomi must have heard the fall and was by my side in an instant she tried to gently lift me but I could tell she couldn’t that or she didn’t want to hurt me “sorry..” Was all I could manage to say

“It’s a...

Anna,

For three years I’ve been wishing things would change.

I miss our picnics and our laughs. I’ve missed having someone I can talk to and trust. Your my only friend An. I need you, please come home.

Jeremy

Jeremy,

I miss it too. Everything. And I want to come home, but Mom moved me out here for a change. A chance at a new life, I need to take it. I’m sorry. But I’m not coming home, because t...

Reinette,

It’s been years since we’ve spoken, and even longer since you’ve gone into hiding. But recently I’ve been thinking about us. My mum’s dredged up some pictures of us she found whilst cleaning. I miss you. Oh gods, I miss you, Nettie. I hope you miss me. I’m just going to send this to your old address in hopes you can read it someday so you can know I’ve been thinking of you. ...

Dear Mum,

I just wanted to let you know that I have acquired the apartment I was telling you about during our last conversation! It’s right near the water, and a short walk from town. I think you would love it!… except for maybe the stairs. But the high ceilings, and several windows, make for a nice, cozy home. I’ve already hung a few pictures and set up my record p...

S,

I am so sorry for the pain I caused you. I never intended for you to find out this way, but I also know you wouldn’t have given up until you found out my identity. You are so smart, almost as smart as me and that is why you were able to figure out my identity so quickly. I think that’s why we work so well together because we are both smart and understand each other better than anyone else. If ...

My Letti

It’s been a week without you in my arms. It pains me to think you might miss me as much as I you.

Thus far we have been on the move. Bus to train train to truck. We are getting close now. Everyone is feeling it. Nerves are high. A young lad, Hugo, won’t shut up about his Matilda. Everyone is getting over his moaning. But they are newly weds. I must admit, I cannot blame him. For what I ...

M,

Me writing this letter is probably pointless. Considering we don’t exactly see eye to eye. How you feel is valid. But shutting me out is not what I expected from you. I will continue to write these letters for the sake of me letting my feelings be known. I know that I chose a horrible time to tell you all my feelings. 2am, in the middle of a parking lot isn’t exactly what I would call romantic...

Dear Bee,

Your shoe is untied.

Did you check? Sorry, that was an immature thing I often did in order to get a laugh but you never laughed too so it was never really funny. My nail broke earlier this morning while cleaning and I searched for hours trying to find it.

I don’t know why. It reminds me of my endless searching for you. I don’t know why, but I do.

Pony,

I’m glad you’ve reac...
