Dear Ben,
it's been four months now and it already feels like a lifetime. I'm really sorry I didn't write to you sooner...
I miss you and Cody. We all miss you, you know? Travis, Hayden, the whole team does. Even Taylor admitted she missed you guys.
The future's still uncertain, but we're trying to make the best out of the situation, like you wanted.
I just wanted to tell you...you did it.
You sent the message.
We still don't know the consequences this might have on the past, present and future, but if everything went right, it'll make everything better. Although we might not even end up having ever existed, knowing how many lives this could change fort he better puts me at ease.
I still remember how Dad motivated us to finally stand up for ourselves and the victims of this capitalistic game:
„What if you had the power to affect monumental change? Would you let fear consume you or would you overcome? Though this story is not inevitable, and a society does evolve, we can change our fate. We can change the future. We can change the past."
Those words were what gave us our purpose to live ever since.
I still miss you so much....but I hope that one day destiny will reunite us. You've always been one of the kindest, most generous and wisest souls I ever got to know throughout my whole life. You certainly didn't deserve the death she gave you. Neither did Cody...he was so much like you, you could've easily been his father...in a way that is what you were to him...
Don't worry, Siobhàn didn't make it out alive either, so she won't be able to hurt any more people.
Sincerely, Thomas.
PS: I'll always love you, big brother. Through life and after life.
