Moment Twelve: The Letter
Set: When Jared tells John something has happened to Natalie and shows him the letter that Tess forced her to write.
John skims the pages of the letter Jared foists in his hand. Her familiar script penned across the pages. He would know her writing anywhere. The way her letters loop together and that slant. In a drawer somewhere he has tucked away a grocery list, the only thing she left behind.
And he's secretly glad. He wishes nothing more than her well rid of Jared. He tries not to think so hard, tries to make her voice fit. He wants to believe this, needs to believe this- because if something has happened to her…
He has no reason to live.
