MORIANI HOME
The envelope is practically searing
through Katherine's
hand by the time she removes the letter opener from
the desk drawer. When she saw it downstairs in the pile of mail, when she
saw that handwriting -- even without a return address anywhere in sight
-- she had to read it right away. And that seemed like something better
done in private.
The trek up the stairs, down the
hallway, and into the study was an excruciating one, as the letter grew
hotter and hotter in her hands. Now she can barely control herself in slicing
the envelope open.
Her anxious fingers unfold the letter
clumsily. What is this about? The Seattle postmark seems strange, and noticing
it has sent her heart racing even more.
The familiar handwriting spreads
out before her as her hands get a grip on the piece of paper. Her eyes
are devouring the words desperately before she even realizes it ...
Left King's
Bay.
Couldn't
even face you.
Will be
in touch later.
A fresh
beginning - hopefully for both of us.
She picks out clips and phrases,
reading them over and over, as if doing so will change the words somehow.
But the message of the letter is painfully clear:
Andy is gone.
I drove him away, her minds
gasps. This is all because he found out about what I did to
Danielle
... and now I don't even really know where my son is or what he is doing.
"I've lost him," she murmurs, clutching
the piece of paper, the only remnant she has left of her son right now,
tightly to her chest. "I've really lost him."
