Dearest Alex,

My love, I am scared. Our story stays hidden in my dressing table drawer, and I have yet to find someone to hand the responsibility over.

I am also terrified that I may not see you. What if my prayers are not enough? If I were to be punished for any of my sins, the harshest one would be to separate us.

I tried to correct my wrongs I could think of... I called Delilah and apologized. Told her I am sorry that our relationship would end as a strained one. She found out I was dying and cried. I haven't heard her cry in a while. I forgave her, Alex.

I have written my will- all our belongings will be sold and the money will go to the Malvins' Educational Foundation. Also, a percentage of the profits from my textile factory (that's right, my factory that produces and owns 76% of the industry) will be indefinitely donated to the foundation. My love, I have ensured our dreams will be kept alive, and that we shall continue to collect good deeds even after I die.

Yours truly,
Rhea Malvin
