STORY STARTER
A teenager discovers their parent’s old love letters, but the contents complicate their typical view of love.
Questions
Cleaning out the attic to turn it into her craft room, Sara stumbles across a small dusty box, coughing. She removed the lid and finds small envelopes with letters inside.
Dearest Katie,
I can no longer live with this lie any more. We need to talk. Please call me.
Dear John,
I’m sorry I can’t talk about this, not right now. I still love you but, it’s just too hard.
Katie,
Please, I think about you and the baby. I have to know.
The letters suddenly stop. BABY!?!?! What baby?!?!? Am I not an only child??? Do I have a brother or sister somewhere?!?!? So many questions whirl around my head.
Too bad I’ll never be able to get my answers.
