Note 5
Cliegg,

If you wish to be called Cliegg instead of Summoner, I will call you Cliegg. Did you change your last name too?

Sorry it took so long to reply. I had our child a day early. I forgive you; I do believe you acted with good intentions, but couldn't you have THOUGHT about it first? I would have listened to you, and I believe that we could have come up with something.

So how much did you sell me for?

Now to tell you about our child…it was a boy, and I named him Anakin. I know you don't like that name, but too bad. He weighed 7 pounds, and he appears very healthy.

I will tell him what I want to tell him. If he asks about his father, I'll just tell him he doesn't have one….even though I forgive you, I could never tell our child that you sold me when I was pregnant with him.

Well what do you think of that?

And I thank you for your thoughts and prayers. I don't know if I'm ready to see you yet.

Shmi
