Dear Jane,

I’ll be leaving her by the time summer is over. Before Fall, way before the leaves change. My family is aware of her abuse, finally. I’ve been telling them of everything she’s done. It’s finally becoming a reality. I have been depressed for what seems like decades. I want to see you, talk to you, have tea with you.

I hope you are doing okay, and you are creating beautiful art. You are my favorite artist of all.

I truly appreciate you so much and I am sorry this whole situation is so crazy and frustrating.

I will be here for you, always.

Love, Edward

Also, check out Resurgence Novels (UK)for original stories, my debut novel I am Bexley is to be publishing on their website and app this year!
