The Beginning of Therese's Long, Long Letter (END)

My Dear Sister,

It has been a while, hasn't it sister? It's me. Your cute little sister, Therese.

I wonder just how long it has been since the last time we met? How are you doing? Well, I suppose I don't even have to ask, do I? Even if I didn't want to hear anything about you, sister, people just never stop talking about what you're up to.

Things have been so busy here that I haven't been able to take the time to write. I've always been writing letters to you, sister, but for some reason or another I haven't actually sent you any for a long time. Isn't it strange?

That's why, I'm sure that this time it will be a long letter. There are so many things I want to write to you about. About our new house, about that strange old man who came from the swamp, about how my father began to play the piano again side by side with that swamp man?

I suppose that, from my sister's point of view, you're much more interested in an apology than any of that? Who knows, perhaps I wrote it at the very end of this letter? So, please make sure to read carefully and check, okay?

Ah, but, I should write the most important thing of all first.

Because, my sister really is ill-tempered and impatient, after all. I'm sure you'll scan straight through this letter and throw it away if you don't see an apology straight away.

So, with that said, sister...

Congratulations on your marriage.

I hope that you'll be happy. That's something I've always thought, from the bottom of my heart.

Because, I am your sister, after all.
