Letters, slid under the door that connects with Milliways

Nov 15, 2006 19:08

Fletcher,

I stayed at Milliways once before without telling you where I was, so I am making sure I don't do that again. I don't want you to worry, I am fine here, using my stay to conduct more research on earth medicine with our friend the doctor.

But that is not the only reason why I am staying, brother, and neither is it the main reason. It has nothing to do with the experiment and I am in perfect health. I just want you to know that me not telling you the reason for my stay is not a lack of trust in you, I just need to figure something out on my own first. Maybe I will be able to tell you someday, but I can't right now, not yet. I hope you can understand.

I do not know how long I will be here but if there are any changes or news about the research, I'll send word. You should be able to write back to me from home even though I've never tried it before. If I don't get word from you in two days, I'll come and make sure everything is alright, if only to stop myself from worrying about you.

I know you will do well on your own, checking on the sick children and taking care of the experiment. I should have let you take that responsibilty a long time ago like I know you wanted. I wouldn't be staying if I didn't think you could handle it. And remember, if you ever get lonely, Mrs. Hadfield is upstairs, you know how much she appreciates it when we visit.

Your loving brother,
Russell

Brother,

I have received your letter without any trouble and I hope this attempt at contacting you will work.

Brother, I wish I could go to this place that you always seem to be disappearing to, if only to convince myself that it actually exists. Though I have caught glimpses of it and our friend the doctor is from there, it is still difficult for me to believe.

But I trust you, brother. I always will. So if you say that you need some space to think, then I won't beg for you to return.

Everything is going very well on this side and I'm going to visit Belsio for a few days to double check on our progress there. He tells me that the town's crops are thriving and I think they even want to give us a party, brother!

I'm leaving Puffy with Mrs. Hadfield as she always tells me that she loves cats just as much as I do. You should see this new trick she can do! Puffy, I mean, not dear Mrs. Hadfield, that would be too silly. I found out that some mice had been getting into our garden outback and Puffy chased them away all on her own. Except for that one I let her eat but I had too brother, she looked at me so cute!

I hope you are finding whatever it is that you're searching for and don't worry about me, I don't get lonely easily. I hope to hear from you soon.

Love,

Fletcher
