Audrey Stone,
Under the pillow of her soft bed,
101 South Shore Road

My dear angry Audrey,

What? Just because we fought you thought that I was going to stop doing our tradition?

I don't get it. Why are you so upset because I'm dating Stacey? Has she done something to you? Stacey is completely over Declan, she told me so. But I don't understand your anger? Audrey, I won't understand until you talk to me. Please, Audrey. Talk to me.

You know, I don't understand you girls. Why does everything have to be so complicated when it comes to you? I think half the time you girls yourself don't know what you want. But Audrey, you've always given me straight answers. You haven't lied to me. Please trust me on this.

I was talking to Stacey; and no Audrey you are not allowed to make that face when I say her name. But anyway, she said that she already knew what kind of life she wanted. She wants a big French house, with a big garden. That got me thinking... You must have a dream similar to hers. Do you? What kind of future do you want Audrey? Dream hard, sweetheart.

Bear hugs and kisses for a goodnight,
Will
(The innocent)
