Dear Richard,
It's really difficult to describe what I think and what I feel on a sheet of paper. It's like trying to speak when you're sobbing; the words just stay stuck somewhere between your heart and your throat.
By now, I must be on the plane flying away from all the memories. I'm sorry I left without you, but I think you figured that out by know. Don't feel as if I abandoned you, because I didn't. I'm sorry that I lied to you. I'm sorry that I took your extra keys before leaving. I'm sorry for not answering your messages, ignoring you when you called, trying not to think of you… if you knew how hard it was. I had to do it for my good and for your good. With Wilson stalking me almost everyday I was living in constant fear.
People tell me that that's not what life is all about. I know you would protect me but we're not in a fairy tale. I'm not some kidnapped princess and you are not a knight in shining armor. There is no white horse. There is no evil witch. There is no castle, no thrown, no love scene.
We're in real life dealing with a real psychopath. He was some crazy guy trying to fulfill his fantasy…Wilson might have been trying to kill all green-eyed or redhead women so that they would be his in his afterlife. I was one of his choices and if it weren't for you I would have been another name on his list of wives. Disgusting. The point is, I wanted you to be safe and I didn't want you to waste your life because of me
It feels good to know that I won't be coming back for some time and I hope that it'll give you a break too. I know it's difficult for you to take this, but I'm starting over and you have to do the same. We couldn't live like we were. Our lives were on the line every day. I know you would die for me and I would have done the same but it wasn't a happy life, was it? And after all that work, Wilson still got away with it. All of our effort and your courage didn't help us move forward.
We were hiding to many secrets from each other and from our friends... It just wasn't right…
I know that your parents died a long time ago at the Circus while executing an act and I wonder why you never told me. Did you think I wouldn't understand how you felt? Maybe more than you think… My parents died on a plane crash years ago. My only family was my k'norfka and my sister. Now, I can't really call Karmen as a part of my family nor my k'norfka since I don't see him anymore.
Karmen is behind bars and won't be out for a long time.
That's why I moved to Gotham City, to get away from it all. Now I'm leaving again and you can't follow me. Please don't try to track me down. I know that Wayne Enterprises makes high tech devices but don't use it to find me. I'm asking you not to follow me, but I know you'll to it anyways… You've got to let me go and you've got to let go of the past. If you hang on to it I don't know how you want to move on. Don't stay hopeful. It kills believe me.
I've stayed hopeful about so many things and I've always been disappointed. I don't want you to be disappointed so don't hope for anything between us Richard. Let life come to you, take the opportunities that present themselves to you. Don't let them down because of me. I would never want to stand in the way of you and your life.
If talking to me or hearing my voice would keep you from moving on I swear that I wouldn't talk to you. I would burn every picture you have of me, I would wash everything I have ever touched so that you wouldn't remember my sweet smell like you called it at times. If seeing me would give you hope I'd run away so that you wouldn't find me. I would erase every memory you had of me just so you could move on. I don't want you to fall in the ditch of disappointment.
I'm so sorry.
Richard, you are the most sensitive, caring, loving guy I have ever met. You'll find the one and she'll be lucky, believe me. Then you'll realize that everything that's happening now had a reason. I'm actually begging you to be the pervert you once were, because you've got to find yourself another girl. But you and me… it was just a crush, right? I'm sorry I made you fall hard. I didn't want that to happen… I didn't know any of this would happen.
I'm sorry, but I don't think I'm your Queen.
I apologize if all of this sounds harsh… but I think I'm better off alone. Don't you feel better that way too? I loved you so much and I know that you loved me too but it hurt so much too. I know that I made you cry. I'm sorry. It has been said that the one that deserves your tears will never make you cry…
Don't forget that there are so many other girls out there that would be dying to have a chance with you, so why don't you give them a chance.
I hope you know that I did love you, more than anything in the world. If you're asking yourself if I still do, my answer is uncertain. I feel lost. I can't really answer anything right now. I think I need to be on my own for some time. But I know that it won't take long for you to forget me… people come and go, right?
Look after yourself and your life. Don't waste it… I hope I only made your life easier for you, not more complicated. Wilson is out of the picture and so am I, so fill the picture with people that you love and you always want there.
You have all the right in the world to hate me.
I say goodbye now in case we don't see each other again, but I hope you know that there will always be the two of us, our story, somewhere in this world.
Love,
Kori.
