One week later…
Dear Adam,
Just wanted to pen a quick note to let you know that we’re having a wonderful time. Levi was right. The pyramids are amazing. We’ve toured several tombs and taken a camel ride through the Valley of the Kings. Pretty damned fearless, your brother. Naturally, I find that infinitely appealing. Of course, I find virtually everything appealing about my new husband, so that shouldn’t come as any surprise.
Though I wasn’t sure I would enjoy this travel thing, I have to admit I’m having the time of my life. I like breathing different air, too—or at least the same air that your brother is breathing. (Though naturally I miss Bethel Bay.)
Hope things are going well with you, that you’re getting stronger every day. I’ll write from Greece. I’m looking forward to wading the shores of the Mediterranean. Who knows what sort of treasure I’ll find, though admittedly I’ve already found the greatest one—love. And now that I’ve officially sickened you with my happiness, I’ll sign off.
Hugs and love,
Natalie
P.S. Stop avoiding Winnie, you stubborn ass. She’s good for you.
