'Hello Stranger,

I hope this letter finds you well. I apologize for reaching out to you as a stranger, but sometimes it's easier to share certain thoughts with someone who doesn't know the intricacies of my life.

Lately, I've been wrestling with emotions tied to my family, specifically my relationship with my father. It's been quite challenging to navigate these feelings, especially considering the expectations and responsibilities that come with being part of my family. While I can't delve into all the details, I find myself longing for a sense of understanding and connection that has been missing for a while.

Growing up, my father's expectations always loomed over me like a heavy cloud. The pressure to excel, to conform, and to carry forward the legacy of our family has been an ever-present weight on my shoulders. It's as if I've been living in his shadow, striving to meet standards that were set before I even had a say.

While I understand that every family has its dynamics, there's an underlying frustration in feeling like I have little control over the direction of my life. It's not that I don't appreciate the opportunities I've been given, but the lack of understanding, the lack of acknowledgment of my own aspirations and dreams, has left me feeling isolated.

I've often wondered if my father sees me for who I am, rather than just an extension of his ambitions. The thought of living a life that aligns with my own passions and interests seems like a distant dream, as his expectations continue to dictate the choices I make. And the more I attempt to voice my desires, the more it feels like my words fall on deaf ears.

I'm sure you've had moments where the weight of familial expectations becomes almost suffocating. It's as if I'm torn between being true to myself and fulfilling a role that was assigned to me without my consent. I find solace in expressing my thoughts in writing, and perhaps by sharing this with you, a stranger, I can find a little release from the pressure that's been building up.

I believe in the power of empathy and the healing nature of being able to confide in someone who won't judge or have any preconceived notions about my situation. If you've ever faced a similar struggle or even if you haven't, I would be grateful to hear your thoughts or any advice you might have.

Thank you for taking the time to read this letter, writing this has helped me vent and calm down from my previous frustrations, so thank you again.

Kind Regards, a fellow Stranger'.

In the quaint living room of the Arc residence, Jaune stood before a small wooden table, the letter held gently between his fingertips. Sunlight streamed in through the window, casting a warm glow upon the parchment. The room was quiet, save for the distant chirping of birds outside.

Jaune's brow furrowed as his cerulean eyes traced the lines of the beautifully handwritten letter. Questions danced within his mind, each vying for attention. He was no stranger to letters, but this one was unlike any he had ever received.

Running a hand through his unruly blonde hair, Jaune muttered to himself, "Well, this is something." His voice held a mix of confusion and intrigue.

In his fifteen years of living with seven sisters, he has gone through a number of challenges, from being a dance partner, to being used as a doll for makeup. However, receiving a letter from an anonymous sender, pouring their heart out about family frustrations, was entirely uncharted territory. He scratched the back of his neck, torn between curiosity and the uncertainty of how to respond.

Leaning against the table, he glanced around the room, as if seeking advice from the familiar walls. His thoughts drifted to his own family. They had their quirks and expectations, yet they had always been a source of support and love. Jaune couldn't help but wonder about the person on the other end of this letter – someone who seemed to bear a heavy burden of unspoken feelings.

With his mind made up, Jaune grabbed a spare piece of paper and pen from a drawer. Sitting down at the wooden table once more, he positioned the paper in front of him and tapped the pen against his chin, lost in thought. Where would he start? he wondered.

After a moment, Jaune took a deep breath and began to write.

'Dear Stranger,

I received your letter and wanted to reach out to let you know that it's ok to feel what you're feeling. Family can be... complicated, and expectations can sometimes feel like chains that hold us back from being ourselves. My own parents have trouble accepting my dream, but I'm determined to prove them wrong, and I'm sure you can to.

It takes a lot to open up to a stranger, and I admire your courage in doing so. Even though we haven't met, know that you have someone who is willing to listen. Sometimes, just sharing your thoughts can help lighten the load.

Life has its twists and turns, and sometimes it's hard to see a way forward. But remember, you're the author of your own story, and you have the power to shape your path. Don't let the weight of expectations define who you are.

If you ever want to talk more, vent, or just exchange thoughts, feel free to write back. I'll be here to read your words. And if you don't, that's okay too. Just know that you've reached out to someone who cares, even if we're strangers.

Take care and stay strong.

Sincerely, a potential Friend'.

Jaune read over his words, making a few adjustments here and there to ensure the message felt genuine and kind. As he finished, he folded the paper neatly and slipped it into an envelope. He sealed it and addressed it with the other letters' return address.

With a sense of accomplishment, Jaune placed the envelope next to the first letter on the table. 'I'll send it in the morning'. He thought. It felt good to offer support to someone, even if he didn't know their identity. He hoped that his words would bring a measure of comfort to the sender, just as writing the letter had brought him a sense of purpose.
