Emma,
House No. 24,
The street across which aunt Amber's imaginary house is located,
An Earth you may never visit


Nathaniel,
At the end of a filthy sewage tunnel,
Futuristic Earth


5th March, About 60,010 years ago


Hey,
It's been exactly 10 years since I last saw you. I wandered around the entire school for a year asking people if they knew a guy named Nathaniel. They thought I was a maniac. Well played, boy.

Anyway, I did what you told me to. Also, I have mentioned you as an important character in my book, which, you should be thankful for, after you acted like such a jerk and left me. I would accept a tour to your new planet as a 'thank you'.

My uncle, a physicist named Gregory Williams, read my book, which he found pretty amazing, and introduced it to his fellow science friends. They probably read it as a mere story, but I'm pretty sure you told me that FUTURE scientists will consider it as something serious, right?

And, I found a guy named Nathaniel Sangster. He is a fellow professor with me (I am a literature professor and an author now). Nathaniel looks a bit like you. He's really good and we've been together since the last couple of years. Planning to be with him for life!

I don't know how old you are now, but I would assume you too will marry someday or probably have been married already. Wishing for you to be happy wherever you are. Aaaanndd do your job of transferring energies properly! LOL!

I'm burying this letter where the opening to the tunnel was located, with a hope that you'll read it someday, somehow.

Miss me, Nate!

Your friend,
Emma
