And, one of these days, guys will be all over you, sweetheart.' He winked in a way that made me swoon. Butterflies in my belly. 'In that case...', I said. 'What?' 'Tell me about Dad's letter.'

I laughed, expecting him to laugh too. 'You are joking, aren't you?' He was still serious. I poked him. 'Hey, I'm waiting.' 'It's a secret.' 'But, it's my letter, not yours. I deserve to know.' 'I'm trying to protect you, sweetheart.' I staggered backwards. Protect me, he said. From what? Whom? Why?
