Kasey burnt the letter.

She took a lighter and lit the bottom right corner of the letter on fire. She watched as the fire started to spread up the letter, words disappearing into black ashes as it fell to the road under her feet. The last words to go was the 'Dear Princess,' and when it finally all disappeared and she let go off the last flaming piece onto the puddle below her, she began to pretend it never happened.

That Jordan never sent her a letter.

That Jordan wasn't haunting her.

That Jordan never existed...

But he did. He remained within Kasey as she couldn't forgot the man who tried to kill her.

Kasey and Bobby never discussed about that night she broke down in his arms, but Kasey knew he thought about it, she could see it in every look he gave her. He knew he had things to say, words biting at the end of his tongue, but he never spoke a single syllable about it as he knew Kasey wouldn't talk about it if she wasn't ready to.

Kasey was still sleeping in her car, or at the fire station when she was on a 24-hour-shift, or even sometimes at Bobby's, but she didn't stay there much as she always felt like a burden. And Bobby always informed Kasey that she wasn't a burden, that she could never be a burden.

And then there was a new guy in her life, a guy that she began to like. He was a doctor she met after rescuing a lovely woman called Ms Rosa at one of her evening shifts. Kasey would come in often to keep her company after learning that she didn't have anyone to come visit her. So, Kasey took it upon herself to visit Ms Rosa whenever she could, and the doctor – Dr Jamie Scott – would often come in on his free time and play cards or other simple board games that Ms Rosa enjoyed playing.
