dear jonah,
i haven't written to you for so long because i was in shock, utter shock.
i've decided to write three more letters: now, next week, and next year.
i have my reasons.
i am doing this without you, although i wish you would support me right now
i'm pregnant
i'm pregnant
it still feels weird to say, that i am pregnant.
I am carrying a child, our child. I'm keeping him or her, not for your sake but for ours. I know what we believe in, i know you would want me to keep it.
i'm sorry, at least i think i am.
we have shelter, we have you, we have family.
but hear me out, one last time jonah.
i will remain strong, even when the lights are off and when i feel like i can't find my way.
it is now 13:27 and i have an appointment at 13:40. I need to leave.
I will be back.
look down on me - on us, and just remember.
remember everything and don't forget.
because once again,
you are sleeping at last, my angel
i sincerely love you
cass.
