"My love take your time... ill see you on the other side.."

I stood at the window in my husband's office...His office was set up in the garden. I see my daughter Angelica playing in the flowers just how she used to do with her older brother Philip.. she was alone that time yet still seems to be talking to him. I felt a tear roll down my cheek before hearing a knock at the door. I opened it slowly to be greeted by someone handing me a letter 

"for Elizabeth hamilton," he said he walked away. I closed the door and sat at Alexander's desk, opening it...

my very dear Eliza, this letter will not be delivered to you unless I shall have first terminated my earthly carrier to began happy immortality. I need not tell you of the pangs I feel to the idea of quitting you and exposing you to the anguish which I know you would feel. nor could I dwell on the topic lest it should unman me. fly to the bosom of your god and be comforted with my last idea; I shall cherish the sweet hope of meeting you in a better world. adieu, best of wives and best of women ever yours,

~Alexander

I read the letter over and over again.. I hugged it to my chest and cried

"ill tell your story..." she mumbled as she set the letter exactly in the middle of the desk. she places the ink in the right corner on the letter and his pen on the left side before walking out of the office...locking it behind her 




(yes-- more angst I'm aware- for some reason, this really got to me and I'm crying as i type this but I promise the next chapter will either be a continuation of the first chapter or fluff)
