Dear Yes-You-like-pink Stranger (definitely not laughing), August 3rd

Sorry, I couldn't respond sooner, had a busy week. They had me run pretty much all the tests know to the mankind, again, but released me, yay! I'm finally home. Well, technically I am living at the dorms of my college. But the bed that I have here is actually my own, not school property, so – I am calling this a win. Tonight I will cuddle my pillow and sleep like a baby. But thank you for offering your services, oh my brave prince :D

And I regret to inform you that there is only one room for a seer in this correspondence, thank you very much. As the classics say – there can be only one. Because what if we'd predict different things? Then others would have to question our credibility! And we can't have that. Since I called this out first, I am claiming the title. Sorry :P

Makes me happy that I was able to brighten your week. If I am being completely honest with you, the last month in the hospital was a lot more manageable with your letters. So, thank you, truly :)

I've also seen the pictures you send me via email. She looks adorable. I would have never guessed she was the smallest kitten, her siblings must be proper beasts! I really like the little white spot on her front paw. And her eyes are such a beautiful amber color, especially in that photo where she's sitting on the window sill, they look so bright and alive there. I am also a fan of your Captain America socks. Very stylish, Mr. Carpenter.

As for the books, I like fantasy. You know, the usual stuff, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, etc. I just like magic. Makes me wish it was real. What would you wish for? Let's say anything is possible, but it has to be something meaningful to you. Don't give me an answer like world peace, haha. Of course, everyone would wish for that. I'd like to assume at least. But then I'd be out of a job as a journalist.

Well, I've gotta go unpack now. I think I will just do the most necessary things and have a nap. I'm feeling very tired and the bed is calling for me. It's just two o'clock, but my body is done with today already.

Yours truly,

Back-in-my-own-bed Stranger


Dear Back-in-your-own-bed Stranger, August 4th

I am so glad you texted me. I was getting legitimately worried. How was it, being back in your own bed? I hope you slept fine. For an insomniac like me, changing beds like this can be tricky. But I am guessing that after all the tests known to mankind, you were asleep the minute your head touched the pillow ;)

And thank you for appreciating my fine style of fashion. I also own a pair with Iron Man, Hulk, and Thor. It was a pack, pay three get one for free. They are comfy though. Yasmine, the little beast, likes them too, though. Which is alarming. I'm worried about my socks.

That picture of her at the window is also one of my favorite ones. I have way too many photos of her. Somehow, she likes to be on camera more than me. She's a true star when it comes to space on my phone, hehe.

Fantasy is a good genre. A lot of good stuff to pick from, especially nowadays it is making a comeback. I have read a few books with magic myself, but let me tell you a secret. I've never seen Lord of the Rings, nor have I read it. I guess I never saw the appeal.

It is raining outside today. We don't get rain very often, which I am okay with, but it is nice to listen to the drops hit the window. It's not too late in the morning right now, so Yasmine is curled up next to me, purring happily. She will demand food soon, though, I am sure.

Got anything special planned for your weekend back? I've heard the new superhero movie is pretty good. I might go see it.

Your friend
