The Letter

It sits on the hallway table, waiting for the owner to pick it up. A crisp white envelope with a neatly typewritten address on the front and no return address on the back. No stamp, it has been hand delivered.

You probably get hundreds of these every day, let alone every February. And they all probably say the same thing.

I hope to see you there.

Yours forever.
