A/N:  sorry about that not letting anonymous review thing.  I had no idea that setting was on.  Well its off now.  So anyone can review.  Wink wink. 

So here is what I have deciding.  I have finished this whole story and I am posting it all up right now.  They are still divided by letters, but its all there.  I dunno if that will get me more or less readers, but it seems to me this story works best when presented in full.  So no waiting! Its all here!.

Dear Kenshin,

Almost a year now.  Where are you?  Kaoru is getting impatient.  She goes to the dock every few days to see if you are coming home. When she's there she stays the whole day. She cut back the number of classes she teaches again.  And she even leaves Kenji to Tsubame and myself to watch all the time.  He may still be a kid, but I know this is affecting Kenji.  Although he has fun with us, he cries for his mom a lot, and I hate to say it Kenshin, but I think he blames you.  I mean, when I mention you to him, he just ignores me, and anything I have to say about you.  I don't know if I imagined this, but I think I saw gold flecks the last time I talked about the possibility of you coming home soon to him.  I know you don't want to hear that, but it's the honest truth.

I can tell you to come home soon all I want, but it won't bring you back sooner.  Not if you don't see these words.  But just to put the vibe out there.  You have great intuition Kenshin.  Come on.  Sense it.  Sense that you are needed back home.
