Dear Frasier...
Chapter Two
Dear Dr. Crane,
I'm so sorry about what's happened to you. It's really awful and unfair. I know that I can't say much right now that will help, but know that everyone here sends their love. I guess that Niles told you about his proposal. It really was wonderful, I've never been happier in my life.
Now, I have a small confession. Niles and I had agreed not to marry until you get out of jail, but one night we just impulsively decided to elope. I hope you're not too mad. We travelled to Rio and had a very short service. We were thinking of you, if that helps, and wishing that you could have been there. We just couldn't wait any longer to get married. I'm sorry. We are now wonderfully happy together. Mr. Crane says that I should call him Dad, but I don't think I can do that. To me you'll always be Dr. Crane and Mr. Crane, even if we are related.
I now have to tell you something else. I haven't told anyone else except Niles. Not even Roz, and especially not my mother! We wanted you to be first to know. A couple of days ago I found out that I was pregnant. Dr. Crane, I'm really quite scared! Niles and I had always planned to have children, but not yet. Niles is overjoyed, of course, but I'm not sure if we're ready. I went for a scan and it's perfectly healthy, which is great. Niles and I decided to find out the sex, after a long debate, and it's a girl. We were thinking of names and we're sorry that you're not here to give us your ideas. We've had a lot of ideas. We've thought of Sarah, Katherine, Laura, Lily, Lauren and God knows how many more. Mr. Crane wants to her to be called Rose. I quite like that idea. Niles wants her to be called Abilene. I like that less. I think I'd like to call her Abigail Rose Crane. I hope you like it. It will be great to be a mum. Wow, I'll be a mummy! I'll also have my own mother as an example which will be good, sort of a what-not-to-do guide. Maybe it's not too soon. I hope you'll be here so that you can hold her and be the best uncle she'll have, even though there's a lot of competition.
I'm a bit worried about your father. He seems to be taking a lot of women back to your apartment now that he's got the place to himself. He's doing well in his physical therapy and I think he really misses you, even though he's denying it. Now, don't get too worried when I tell you this, but Mr. Crane has been looking at other dogs for sale. I wouldn't think about it too much, it's probably just a phase. He wouldn't want any other dog but Eddie, I don't think. Anyway, I'm sure he'll tell you how he is in his letter.
Roz misses you a lot. KACL radio isn't the same without Dr. Frasier Crane on the airlines. They've hired a temporary radio physiatrist, but she's not the same. She's called Dr. Louisa O'Brien. Her views are slightly different to yours. You're kinder.
I'm sure that the time will fly and that you'll be back here very soon. My brothers don't seem to think that prison is that bad, at least that's what they told me.
Love, Daphne.
A/N. Hope to hear what you think!
