Just like I thought, everyone is extremely happy to see that Carol is doing just fine.
I'm exhausted in all honesty. I just want to go to bed and sleep for the rest of the night. After I put my stuff away, I start making my way toward the bedroom. Carol grabs the sleeve of my shirt, making me turn around.
« Is something wrong, Carol? »
She hands me an envelope. I tilt my head and take it.
« What's that? »
« It's a letter! From big brother Norman! Last time he came to the house, he asked me to give this letter to you once you would come find Phil and Sherry. He knew you would come and you came! »
« Norman, you say? »
« Yeah- »
« That's impossible. »
« Huh? »
Carol flinches by how loud I say it. I didn't mean to interrupt her like that.
« I'm sorry Carol. I didn't mean to. »
« It's okay. Just take it. He wanted you to have it. »
And she left. I'm surprised she didn't ask me more questions about why I reacted that way.
*Sigh*
I'm going to bed now. I'll read the letter later.
...
...
...
...
Fuck it. I read it now.
I open the letter before laying on my bed. This handwriting is familiar. What if... what if Carol was right? No... that's impossible. Norman's been dead for years now. It was someone else that gave Carol the letter. I can't see any other option.
I start reading it.
"Dear Ray & Emma,
Yes, I know your names. I know that you escaped on Ray's birthday, back in 2046. I also know that you escaped with some members of your family, but not all of them. The plan didn't go as it should, am I right?
I've met some of your family. Some were in Lambda. They're doing fine, don't worry. The scientists had orders to only make them do some daily tests. Just like back in Grace Field. Now, they're at the hideout. Lambda has been destroyed and I'll make sure it stays that way. As for the others, I'm still looking for them. My guest is that Anna and Gilda most likely became sisters. As for Don... I'm still looking. I just hope I won't be too late for any of them.
I want you to know that you have allies here. I've been writing to the mom of Plant 1 for a few years now. I've been writing to her even before she became a mom. She's one of our allies. All she wants is for her children to be safe. I wish I could go see her to tell her in person that everything will be alright. For some reasons I don't know yet, the Grandma unables me to go to Plant 1. She let me go to the other Plants, Lambda and the capital without any problems though.
