Kaidan,

I understand your anger with me, and why you said what you did. I want you to know that I'm not angry with you for seeing that doctor on the Citadel. I would have wanted you to move on, plus, most people don't come back to life, you know?

I'm sorry my return was so stressful. It was for me too. And as for Cerberus.. well… do you remember what I always said? There are some things you do because you have to. Far as Ilos goes, I don't know that I could ever forget. I have been knocked on my ass time in and time out, but I always pcked myself up, every time putting up thicker walls around myself. You're the only one I ever let in, did I tell you that?

Everyone around me dies Kaidan. Perhaps you're better off without me. Shel Silverstein wrote "There are no happy endings, endings are the saddest part, just give me a happy middle, and a very happy start." I got that with you.

Thank you for the good times. May they guide you always.
