Dear Jughead,
   I didn't lie when told you how I sad to be back in Riverdale, I just didn't mind not telling you the reasons why.

   When I came back home after the road trip, my parents found out that you are a serpent. They told me that if you stayed a serpent I couldn't be with you, and I couldn't ask you to give up the serpents, they're your family and I know that. So I condescendingly said that they couldn't stop me from being with you, and they said that if I stayed with you, I couldn't stay with them.
   Basically, they kicked me out like parents in bad romantic comedy.
   I decided to take it as an opportunity, I knew Cheryl's mom was treating her like shit, so I asked her if she wanted to move in with me, and she said yes. Everything was going great, we worked at pop's at night, but eventually we started missing out on money. I needed to find a way to make more money! Anyways, I came up to Malachai and he told me he could offer me jobs... so yeah I'm selling jingle jangle occasionally to tie the two ends.
   I'm sorry. I should but— but you know Jones.
Love,
Veronica
