A letter is never ill-timed; it never interrupts.
Instead it waits for us to find the opportune minute, the quiet moment to savor the message.
There is an element of timelessness about letter writing.

"Alright you pooheads." I say as I stand in front of the projector screen in Cairo's home theater then I look at my national team teammates.
"We're not pooheads." Sophia says then she throws popcorn at me.
"Really?" I say with a smirk.
"Doggies get her." Sophia says, but my dogs stay laying with Mikaela and our kids.
"Anyways." I say with a smile. "Now that everyone has showered lets get this meeting going."
Around an hour ago we got back from the batting cage place and everyone seemed to have fun which is good.
Once we got back to Cairo's street, where we're staying, all of us went to our respective houses we're staying in and showered then we all met up in Cairo's home theater for our meeting about the game tomorrow.
Becky and Nova, Cairo and Megan, Alex and Freya, Abby and her husband, and Naomi Girma, Teagan McGrady, and Taylor Kornieck all live on the same street so the national team and staff are staying in the houses on this street.
Naomi Girma, Teagan McGrady, and Taylor Kornieck are actually renting the home I own in San Diego.
Once the APL becomes an official thing in a couple days and we start getting paid what we deserve by our club teams, I plan on seeing if the three of them wanna buy the house.
I'm trying to sell all my AirBnb's because cities are now passing laws requiring an Airbnb owner to live in the city they rent out of.
"So first of all we have the announcers list." I say then I hit next on the slideshow

"We have announcers?" Taylor asks.
"All of the games and tournaments will be live streamed on the Battle of the Borders Youtube Channel." I say then I look at Cairo. "Right?"
"Yep." Cairo says then she looks at Taylor. "That's what that post we had you all put on social media was about."
"Oh." Taylor says.
"You three are commentating?" Rose asks.
"Well Aurora has a journalism degree and her favorite olympic sport has always been Beach volleyball so she'll be able to do that fairly easily." I say. "Then Table tennis is kinda boring to watch so listening to my twin and I bullshit with each other for a couple hours will make it more enjoyable."
"Ah." Rose says.
"Emma did your mom play beach volleyball?" Lynn asks.
"She did." Emma says.
"Before we move on." I say then I look at Trinity. "Trinity are you gonna be okay to play tomorrow?"
"I don't think so." Trinity says. "I feel better, but playing a baseball game tomorrow doesnt sound like the best thing."
