Happy Friday! I didn’t write on President’s Day because it seemed like a rather unimportant holiday. Did you get school off? I forgot to take it off, so I took Tuesday off instead. Speaking of, ‘two’s day’ was fun to think about. I took a screenshot of the date on my iPad at 2:22 PM. Did you notice the date? We’ll enjoy another day like that on 3/3/33.
Not much happened this week. I think I’m close to finishing my capstone novel (before editing, alas). I hope school is going well for you. I’ll be much cheerier after my AP tests.
Apparently Yasmin (Siena’s mom) messaged my mom. She didn’t say very much that made sense to me. Mom gave her my number to give to Siena so that she could text me, but she hasn’t yet. It doesn’t make much sense to me at all. Nobody speaks to us. I don’t know why. I don’t know further why someone would speak to us, after no one else will. It’s a conundrum I cannot solve. Do you know why? There is no one else to ask.
It’s been so long since I’ve been back home. I want to return there so much. Mom is talking a lot about places to go on my gap year. However interesting anything is, I just want to go home. Even if only for a day. I hope you are well there — I’m sure it is a much more of a frightening place for you than it is for me, when you are always there. Goodnight. I hope you have something that gives you comfort.
With love,
Alice
