Memoir: A Letter To Home

Ma, Pa, and all my boys at home, my brothers whom I love but had better stop sending me porn spam (yes, I said it, and in front of Ma too, serves you right!) ,

I miss you all so much. I know that I'm lucky to be here, but sometimes when I lay down in my bunk at night, my heart aches thinking of you all. I worry about Ronan and his bullies, Malachai and the exams. Worry about Pa's back, and Ma's eyes.

I wish I could be home with you all, every day. I do like it here. But I think about how hard we all had to work just to live, and I feel so guilty about leaving you behind. Like I abandoned you. It feels like I went on to this incredible life by stepping on your backs, and it breaks my heart.

I want you to know that I haven't forgotten about you. You are all in my heart, and I'm coming home. I don't know when, but I will. And I'll take care of everyone, and I'll make sure that everything changes.

I thought the boys would like to know, Alexander Aurelia is here. He's…interesting, to say the least. Not at all what they would expect. All those Ring posters hanging up in their rooms, figured that'd make them happy.

One day soon, we'll all be together. Ma and I will make a huge dinner, and we'll all sit down and eat and laugh and yell, and then the boys and I will go out and get right drunk and sing our songs down the roads we've walked since we were children.

I love you all so. Don't give up hope. I'm going to make it right.

Your sister and daughter with love,

Tempe
