"My Dear Elizabeth, You are much better if not equal to Laura Ingalis Wilder but with your writing talents along with my illustrations this book of our will sale out in the town Hope Valley to mountains cross Cape Fulterton."
Elizabeth kisses Jack confesses, "One of my dreams is just being with you for the rest of my life and having our love story published and for many people to know how love is truly special in this world."
Then little Jack jr. Came inside laughing with much older cody and drop him off from playing little league as he He want to show his parents what he learn in practice. Jack takes his son tells him,
" How about you and me practice some bat swinging as mommy finishes writing how much she loves you and I " Jack and his son both give Elizabeth a kiss as they chase each other out the door.
Then Jack is snapped back to present as a woman echo his name
"Mr.Lissing"
Jack opened his eyes to see Elizabeth standing in front of him. He couldn't believe after all this time he wasn't crazy their love was so strong it can be reborn again. He so much wanted to kiss her a mere sight of her but she stood there in front of him awaiting a response he realized she did not know their past life together. So he sighed took his hand and said,
"Sorry, yes I am Mr. Lissing, but you can call me Jack."
Elizabeth hand his hand shakes it and reply, " Nice to finally meet you Jack, with that you call Elizabeth or Lizzie whichever you wish despite everything Rosemary speaks highly of you. "

Elizabeth sits down before reading the book she sets it aside for she wanted to know few things first before editing and publishing.
"Jack from what I read of your book, I have no doubt that every woman will flock for this book, I just have some reservations in how you want to this book to be pecived."
Jack concerned. "What is the problem?
" Some people might have a problem having this book characteristized this as memoir or non fiction book. "
"What do you think? Elizabeth should this book not be listed as memoir ot tale of non fiction for it is truth my truth of my past life while I was in coma." Jack wonders what advice would be for his book even though he was not going to change his mind making as a memoir for that it what it is at least to him. "
"Jack, I am not calling you a liar or a crazy person for that matter. I want it to be made known that some people might take offense to what you are telling them is true when some might think of it as fantasy, that is all. If you want to sell it as a memoir and that is what I will do so."
"Thanks Elizabeth, and may I ask what got you into editing and publishing. Why did you didn't you stay with teaching?"
"Yes oh I love teaching still do, but After reading one of first self publish book, I felt compelled to follow that dream of doing the same as the author." Elizabeth admits

"Excuse did you say Elizabeth Thatcher, one The first teachers of bright hope." Jack stunned bewildered , "May I barrow this book"
"I am sorry but it is a family airloom, it was given to my mother you might know her, Abigail Spencer she owns the atiqiue shop in town she might have one or two copies. Hee grand grandchildren knew Elizabeth and few of the books were passed down to her. "
" Really amazing she did it she publish our love story . " Jack muttered
"Excuse me what was that, Jack? " Elizabeth wondering what he was muttering about.
Jack reply, "Really, I find it amazing how life works out in the end how every decision can change your life like when reading a book."

He did not know but i found letter in my desk He will that he was Jack from the future a different time i thought he was an imposter but as read his letter and previous letters found in the desk. I realized his words the drawlings were Jack and I am writing this full hope and joy knowing that there is a Jack in the future waiting for waiting with the hope of forgiveness. And I do forgive you Jack from the future and if you exist there and then i surely exist there with you. But my Jack here in my time in 1902 is gone. And before I leave this world and go on to this next life that a love story is told and know in this world to all wish to read it."
Jack put down the book got out of bed went to kitchen got a glass of whiskey started at it he could not believe it she knew about him she knew about everything. Jack couldn't believe it so he took a swig of the whiskey and poor more in his glass as he went back upstairs to rest and read the rest of the book later.
