Dear Kady-Kat,
Some rough things are going on down here; I might be staying here longer than I thought. Fingers crossed I get home soon though; I can’t spend another day away from you. I still think about you before I go to bed at night and as soon as I wake up. Hell, you’re the only thing that’s keeping me going anymore. Don’t tell Aria I said that, she’d claw my eyes out.
Kady, please tell me what’s going on. You seem so upset in all of your letters; please tell me so I can help. I know I can’t help much from over seas but I can at least do something. Please, Kady. It’s tearing me up knowing that you’re hurting and I can’t hold you in my arms to comfort you. I want to be there for you.
Oh, there was something I wanted to tell you! So, the other day one of my buddies think they’re “in love” with one of the locals over here. We went into town and the poor guy followed her into one of the curtained rooms. He came out a couple hours later with lighter pockets, if you know what I mean. And, before you fly over here to smack me, I didn’t do anything, I swear! I could never look at another woman knowing that you’re waiting for me, knowing that you love me. But, this guy will not stop talking about her! She’s “the one” apparently. Haha, the other guys won’t stop teasing him about it.
God, I’m terrible at writing letters.
I know my writing’s all over the place, but I just can’t seem to organize my thoughts for some reason. But, you know how my brain works so I guess you know what I mean, ha.
Tell me how everything’s doing over in good ole’ USA. Anything special happen? My buddy’s little, uhm, predicament, is the only entertaining thing that’s happened lately. Other than that, it’s just been sadness. Everywhere you look there’s sadness and there isn’t anything I can do about it. I hate feeling useless. I know I shouldn’t feel like that since I am over here fighting for the good guys, but what’s the point anymore. No matter how much good I do there are still innocents dying everyday.
I saw a kid kill himself the other day. Bomb strapped to his chest. He probably fûcking thought that he was saving the ones that he loved when he did it. He couldn’t have been older than 10 Kady. The worst part was the look in his eyes when he did it. No regret. No doubt. Just stone. He knew what he was doing, at least he thought he did, and he looked proud of himself.
I just want to be home, I just want to see you and Aria. Hell, I even want to see Spencer. Any friendly familiar face from home for that matter.
There’s a second letter in here as well, can you give it to Aria for me?
I love you Kady-Kat. I love that you’re waiting for me. I can’t wait to see you. Hopefully, I have only a couple more months left. Well, almost a couple more months. I’m about half way there!
I love you and can’t wait to see you.
Your knight in camo armor,
Dare-bear
Dear Aria,
Hey loon, I know I haven’t written to you so please don’t send me a letter that’s laced with poison or something. I wouldn’t put it past you.
I miss my baby sister like crazy and I don’t want you to feel like I’ve forgotten about you. I’ve even got a souvenir ready for you. His name’s Zed. I feel like you’ll forgive me after this. I can always give you his information so you guys can write to each other if you want?
I still have a couple scars on my àss from falling when you made me run through the fûcking town like a psycho, so thanks for that.
Listen Aria; if the unthinkable happens and I don’t make it back I need you to know that I didn’t do this just for dad. I know we talked about this already but I need you to know that it wasn’t just for him. It’s for me, it’s for you, and it’s for mom too. I hope you can be proud of what I’m doing instead of being angry with me. Please Aria, I don’t know what I would do without you pissing me off on a regular basis.
As soon as I get back I’ll take you to your favorite place, okay? But, this time, the Jungle Man is not giving me a lap dance. I swear to God Aria, if you do that to me again you will never see the light of day.
Stay strong kid, I love you.
Don’t go too crazy,
Derrick
