Hello, it is the 28th and I am back with a new chapter! I wrote this very late in the month thanks to being occupied with all different kind of projects but I've had this idea written down for a while! Creating a new character is always exciting because you get to ponder how they interact with other characters, sometimes even ones directly from the anime. In this chapter, we see that James' Nanny and Pop-Pop - Josie and Noah - not only met Jessie during the Team Rocket days, but Jorginho as well. And they had a lasting impact on him. I hope you enjoy :)

Dear Josie and Noah,

I cannot tell you how much I wish that I was looking into your eyes right now after a warm embrace from you both. But one thing I have learnt is that you cannot change everything. Though I wish I was saying these words directly to you, I will have to make do with this. I will have to accept this. But, to tell you the truth, accepting that you are both gone is very difficult for me.

I had a feeling that you must've moved onto another place. When my paths miraculously crossed with your great-grandson, Justin, he spoke of you in the past tense and I picked up on that straight away. It took nearly a year later and for me to reconnect with your grandson again – with James – and to ask outright.

I gathered the truth. But that didn't mean it hurt any less. It made me very sad.

And even though I begin this letter with all of this, I don't really wish to talk about your passing. You two made a significant impact on me, and I would like for you to know that.

I will never forget your kindness. True family for me has been few and far between so when James asked if I wanted to visit you in your home when us boys were nineteen or perhaps twenty, I was more than humbled to oblige.

Certainly, I never regretted that opportunity for a second.

You welcomed me into your beautiful home so warmly and so kindly, I will never forget that. This was back during the days where James would just smile and say a few words rather than many and back when I didn't know what kind of man I would grow up to be.

Not that I wholly know now. But your generosity certainly still reminds me of traits that I wish to embody myself.

I have fond memories of visiting you both, the first time and the other times as well. I will always remember how you looked at each other and how you clasped one and other even though you must have been married about a handful of decades at that point. Josie, I'll never forget how at peace you looked in your garden. And Noah, I carry with me the twinkle in your eye when your grandson wrapped his arm around your shoulders.

Like I said, true family for me has always been few and far between but I could almost kid myself that I was nearly part of something like that when I was around you clan of Morgans.

I only wish that I could have been around you all for longer.

I wish that I could have been around for your grandson a whole lot longer. But you know what I was like in my twenties. You might be able to see it now and I know that you saw it back then. I could be stubborn. And when I felt betrayed, there was no looking back. Ties had to be severed. They just had to.

I thought of the make-believe family I once had but turned my back on virtually every day once we were no longer in each other's lives. And I thought of the two of you many times before. I wondered how you were getting on. If Josie's kitchen still came alive from the second that she entered it, humming, let alone before she made her delicious food. And I pondered if Noah had planted that tree in the garden that he always said he wanted to do.

I wondered how those two old heroes of mine were getting along.

I was hesitant to ask when I connected with James again because I feared the truth. I don't anymore. Your grandson, you see, has stopped me being scared of a lot of things. And the loss of the two of you is one of them. Because I see, as clear as day, that even though you might not be around, you still are in every sense.

In the smile that tugs across James' lips when I remind him of a memory of the two of you. Within the house that he shares with Jessie – it now has a lot of your treasures dotted around, after all. In Justin's dimples. Josie gave them to him. Inside my own heart. Noah's wisdom lives there. As does Josie's pat of a hand that I feel each time my heart thuds when I think of her.

Wherever the two of you are, I know that you are together. And I hope that if you can look down – if you're not too busy falling in love with each other over and over again wherever you are – that you will see that James and I are together again too.

Somehow, we were able to become friends again. And since that fixed itself, we've been shown a whole new path of how we can co-exist side by side. I think that would make you happy. I hope that it would.

To tell you the truth, this summer I have never been happier. And getting to talk to you again brings the biggest smile to my face as well – along with a little tear in my eye.

I may wish that I could be seeing you face to face. But believe me, I am overjoyed at any chance to reconnect with you all over again.

It touched my heart that your grandson knew that I longed for a moment like this. And now that it is happening, I am rather glad that I never had a chance to say goodbye. Because, in my mind, you are alive and dancing in my heart. And I would rather remember you like that.

I should say farewell now. The summer air is getting chilly, and I said I would take James to the movies tonight. I'd never break a promise to him. Not again.

Before I go, Noah and Josie, just in case you are wondering – fearing – for your grandson in case history repeats itself, I feel I must say something. And what I wish to say is this:

I can't promise that I will always look after James because, if the past has taught me anything else then it is that no one can know where our paths shall again turn. But what I can promise is that every day I will keep him in my thoughts and in my heart, even if we are not together.

And if I do that then, well, hopefully those wishes will be enough to keep him safe no matter what.

I'll keep the two of you safe in my heart as well. Thank you so much for everything. Goodbye for now, but not goodbye for always.

All my love and respect,

Little Ginho.

There you go, thanks so much for reading and I hope you enjoyed! :) One thing that really upsets me is how many things Jorginho misses out on when he and James are not speaking during those twenty years of fall out! One of the biggest things for me is him not being able to say goodbye to Noah and Josie. Here you can see he absolutely would have wanted to. And you also see him make peace with it. This specific summer he shares with James in their late 40s keeps cropping up, doesn't it? The reason for this is they make a bucket list of all the things they think they would have done if they hadn't fallen out so they spend the summer making up for lost time! In the end, certain things get ticked off that they never even planned. I'm sure I'll delve further into that one day. How can I not? :D Thanks again for reading and I will be back on the 5th April to update Pikachu Tales! See you then perhaps :P
