Dear Pippin, I don't know what to say. We've never been apart like this... not knowing if we'll ever see each other again. My heart longs for you, Pip. You're too young to understand how much I want you, how much I /need/ you. When I'm with you, it's like nothing else in the world matters. Maybe it's too late, but I'm finally going to say it. I'm in love with you, Pip. I'm sorry for all the times I've taken you for granted. If you don't make it back, there'll be nothing for me to live for. I don't even know if this letter will reach you, but please, come back to me, Pippin.
Love, Merry
