Miss Nathalie Rogers, aka Nattie, is a telegraph operator in the 1870s. She is nineteen and lives in a boarding hotel, having left her family so that they won't have to support her. She is independent, smart, and aspires to be a writer someday, once she finds the time.

One day, at work, another telegraph operator some sixty miles away begins to chat with her through Morse code. After a few unfortunate events, they begin telling stories, laughing ("the circumstance being conveyed to her understanding in the usual way, by the two letters 'H a!'"), and keeping each other company until suddenly things take a most puzzling and mysterious turn.



This is the type of story in the "Shop Around the Corner" and "You've Got Mail" genre, although this one pre-dates both. 
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

"More" he demanded. "What's with the sudden interest?" Before he reacts I hastily added some joke to lighten the mood. "Knock, knock." He opens and then closed his mouth masking his surprise. "Who's there?" "Icy" I drawled. "ICY WHO?" He replied. "You see me, do you need glasses or something?" then his booming laughter echoed inside the library which again a loud shushed from the librarian and some nearby students hit us. "That was hilarious!" I just shrug my shoulders masking my face void of emotion. And then my heart beats again faster because of what he said next. "Oh babe, if you just see what I see." He looks straight at me and I immediately avert my eyes to my book which is in front of me. Oh diary, I think his eyes will be the death of me. Ugh! * * * * * * * This diary is a personal property of Abby Mason. By personal means no one I mean NO ONE is allowed to read or possess this diary.

"I just want to be friends." She says, smiling at me. "Does it look like I care?" I furrow my brows and she shrugs. "I don't want nor need a friend." I mumble. She smiles softly at me, "Everyone needs a friend." "Well I don't, so leave me the fuck alone." I roll my eyes, reverting my attention back to the book. "You know, you're very grumpy." Does she ever shut up? "What's you name?" I ask looking down at her. "River," She says proudly. "River?" "Yes?" "Shut up."
