Dear May

Dear May,

...She said with a laugh, that she feared her conscience got heavier every day. At the time I did not understand but now I would hate for the child to feel so weary. It's my responsibly to make sure that doesn't happen and it cannot, for she is safer here with me. She can bear her conscience how she chooses. There is no one who can reprimand me. There is no one to chastise. There never was except for you. Please reply to me. Let me listen to you just once more.

Sincerely,
W.

And she answers...
