  Chapter Thirty-Five – The Letters

  Dad,

  I’m really sorry I can’t do more than write this letter to you. If I could come home, I would, it’s just not safe to. I’m not really sure if I ever will be safe. People are after me, but I can’t say more. The less you know, the safer you are. Please don’t come looking for me, just know that I’m safe and alive.

  I want to thank you for everything you’ve done for me. I wouldn’t have gotten through losing Mom without you. I want you to know I won’t be alone. I’ve met someone I care about a lot. She’s amazing and I hope one day you’ll be able to meet her. She’s special, I knew it straight away. I hope you can find someone who will make you happy, too. It’s okay to love someone and still miss Mom.
