Chapter 4: Communication From Every Corner

Molly had made herself a hot chocolate before opening the box that Mycroft had brought her only to discover that he definitely wasn't joking when he said there were 730 letters inside, Molly opened the first one to discover a postcard from New York,

'Molly,

The weather here is unbearable, who would have thought that a place with so many famous crimes would irritate me so much. S'

Molly couldn't help but shake her head in amusement before moving onto the next envelope.

A few envelope's later, Molly discovered a postcard from Paris,

'Molly,

Usually I am a man of routine but giving that it is now the month of March, I decided to divert my journey to Paris, due to it being your favourite country, I thought you might appreciate a post card from 'The Palais Garnier' opera house. I must thank you for your favour of this location as during my spare time, I found myself investigating a chandelier crash that happened some years ago. Something involving a phantom or something according to one of the staff that I can only assume is suffering from a deterioration of the mind.

Happy Birthday. S.'

Molly felt herself smile as a happy tear fell down her cheek and she found that she stayed up all night reading every single postcard Sherlock had written and the night soon found Toby the dog curled up beside Molly as she slept, holding a Paris postcard close to her heart.

The next day found Sherlock and John at the scene of a robbery when the owner of the house offered them both a cup of tea,

"Yeah that would be great" John said thankfully but Sherlock didn't take his eyes off the crime scene,

"I don't drink tea" he grumbled but then a take away cup was held next to his size, earning his gaze,

"Black coffee, two sugars" a voice said causing him to look up to see Molly offering him a gentle smile and he stood with a half smile, accepting the take away cup,

"I think I need your brother's help to get my old job back" Molly said gently and Sherlock could only give a charming smirk.
