Dear Sentimental Jonas
             Missing your brother must be tough for you. You won't be able to see him until your trainings over right? If I recall you get one week off before you go to the front lines. It terrifies me to think that you'll be going into the war zone and shooting the enemy and-

Hey, so I know we're trying to keep a light mood so I'll say something from the past as well.

When I was eleven, during school we had happened to be playing a game of tag with my friends. As we all know boys are immature at that time and just admit it because I've got proof from my own eyes.

While playing the boys had started to surround me and my friends and invited us to play with them. There nice invite apparently had a different motive. They threw water balloons at us. We went full on war afterwards and apparently there was a dare. The kid name Bastille (not the singer if you know him) well he kisses me. Cliche right. First kissed stolen by a stupid dare. That's usually what happens.

I got reminded of that moment when I saw his picture in the government soldiers pictures. He volunteered like you. He's not much of a jerk now that I think of it. Not to mention that he had sent me a letter to apologize and we talk once a week like how I talk to you. I'm surprised he even remembered my address.

From Playful Ava

Like how Jonas said about him thinking back about the old times I did to. Except I thought of Bastille Kale. Strange name right? Well he was a strange guy as well so you could say the name suits him. My memories of Bastille weren't great but that was when I was elementary school and junior high. He was decent in high school.

He had sent me a letter for some strange reason. I didn't understand why he would and how he would remember me even.

Every time I wrote to Jonas I felt and obligation to keep him informed about my life as well. I think the same goes for him. Maybe just maybe he likes me-

Snap out of Ava.

Your feelings can't grow.

You know it'll never work out.

"Take it easy sis!" Molly walked past my bedroom while stuffing her face with a wagon wheel. It didn't matter to us to eat in front of each other from our secret stash now since we both knew. We only did that when mom and dad were out.

Which was most of the time now.

Remember what I said about the black market they've been going to it for a while. They come back home with loads of stuff but, I have a feeling that their keeping something from Molly and I.

"You too!" I yelled back to only hear a groan.

She had happened to be crushing on the class bully in her school. Of course school still goes on but most people don't bother to go. The only people in her class still going is her, her crush, one girl and more boy. So basically speaking four people.

Her and that bully have started to develop feelings for each other. Except she's like me and wants to end it.

Ahh junior high drama. I remember it.
Kids date so early these days. When I was elementary in grade one people were already dating. By the time you get to junior high you or your friends would had at least ten exes or even more. That was the time of year where you start making out heavily in the back of the bus or classroom.

What I'm trying to say is that Molly is going through that stage. Minus the fact she has dated or made out. She is starting to develop feelings.

Maybe this why we're sisters. We both don't want to keep our crushes.

Jonas Hopkins.

Your a pain in the heart.
