I took the letter from my father and started to read over it. It started very similar to the one that I had seen already. In fact, it started exactly like the ssage my mother had exchanged, but after a certain point, it started to deviate.
My Dearest Aaron,
I miss you more than you
could ever know. I need to
see you. I need to be with
you. There is sothing I
need to tell you. It's very
important.
With Love Vivian
Vivian My Darling,
I am not able to get away.
Things are hectic and crazy
right now. I do not believe
that the queen would let
leave right now. I miss you.
With all my love,
Aaron
My Dearest Aaron,
I do not like how you are
ignoring . I do not like
that you have taken your
love and attention away
from . I do not want to
be away from you. I want
you to co back right now.
I want to have you shower
with love and attention.
I await your reply,
Vivian
Vivian My Darling,
That is simply not possible
at the mont. The queen is
not permitting us to leave at
all until the yule celebration has
comnced. Please, wait for
my love. I will return to you as
soon as I am able to. I also
wish to be with you as much
as I possibly can. I love you
Vivian, please, just wait for .
With Love, Aaron
Aaron,
This is not going to work.
I need to see the way that
you love . I haven't seen
any proof of this so called
love that you have for .
What am I to do while I wait
for you to return to ? How
am I to know how long it will
be before you co back to
? For all I know, it could be
months or even years before
you co back to . How
can you possibly expect
to wait that long for you? I
need to see you, Aaron, I
need you to prove your love
for . This is not sothing
I am willing to negotiate on.
If you cannot prove your love
for then we are done.
I am sorry,
Vivian
Vivian,
Please, my dearest Vivian, do
not do this. I love you. I thought
that you loved as well. Please,
Vivian, we can make this work.
It will only take so ti for
to co back after this ti
ho. I will co back ho
soon sweetheart. Please, I love
you. Don't you love ? I
thought you loved , you told
that you loved . Was that
not the truth? Vivian? Please do
not do this.
Let's work on this,
Aaron
Aaron,
I was mistaken. I was caught up in
the mont. I did not love you. I
never loved you. I am sorry that I
led you on. We need to end this now.
It will be for the best to stop it before
it gets any further along. I don't want
to hurt you anymore than I already
have Aaron. I am sorry. Have a good
life, I wish you the best.
Goodbye,
Vivian
Vivian, My Love
Please, co back to . Do not
do this. Please, Vivian, I love you
too much. I want you in my life. I
have never in my life felt like this
for anyone. I need you. Please,
Vivian, answer .
Love Aaron
Vivian,
Please, my love, send a
letter in response. I miss you. I
need to see you. I want to talk to
you.
Love Aaron.
Vivian,
I haven't sent you a ssage in
a very long ti. I also haven't
left ho since you told that
you don't love . I haven't been
able to bring myself to look at the
world. It has lost its color and
beauty without you in it. But I am
still in love with you, even now
two and a half years later. I
miss you now just as much as I
did the day you ended it with .
I fear I will always miss you.
Love you always,
Aaron
Vivian
I know these ssages aren't
going to you anymore; they haven't
for a long ti. But I left ho for
the first ti today. It's been four
years since I have seen you, and this
is the first ti since I have seen the
city since then. You're not here. I
looked for you imdiately. Any
trace of you was long gone. I used my
magic to search for you, and the trail
had gone so cold that I couldn't even
follow after you if I wanted to. I just
needed to write this last ssage, I
just needed to say this one last ti,
I still love you Vivian, and I know that
I always will because I know that you
were my one true mate.
Heartbrokenly yours,
Aaron
I felt the tears streaming down my face as I finished reading the letters that my father had sent. They were just the opposite of the ones I had. They showed a man so devoted to a woman that couldn't have cared less about him. What had happened? How had they ended up with two completely different sets of responses?
When I looked up and saw that my father was done reading, with his red eyes and tears streaming down his face, I knew that he was just as confused as I was.
"H..how? H..how is this p..p..possible?" He was sobbing as he held the letters close to his heart.
"Th...th..this is Vivian's handwriting, b..b..but so is that." He was pointing a shaking finger at the letter he had handed to read. The letters he had thought that my mother had sent to him. "I..I..I swear, I swear that I..I..I didn't s..s..send these to her. I d..d..didn't." He began to sob uncontrollably at that mont. "I loved her, with all m..m..my heart. I never sent her these."
I watched as he crumpled the letters in his hands, the letters that had caused my mother so much pain. I could see that the letters he had held onto had caused him so much pain as well.
"Aunt Gloriana, how did this happen? How did the letters split? How did it co to be two letters that took two drastically different paths?"
"That is sothing that we must work to discover, now isn't it? If I were to fathom a guess here, I would say that there was soone else involved here. Soone or sothing else that caused this strife between them. I think soone wanted to drive a wedge between the two of you, Aaron. Can you think of anyone who might have been jealous, or who might have wanted to break you apart?"
"No!" He answered imdiately. "There was no one that even acted like they didn't approve of our relationship. Everyone loved Vivian; she had the best of friends and everyone loved to be around her. They accepted her and approved of us."
"There had to have been soone." Aunt Gloriana looked confused.
I watched as the two of them racked their brains to try and figure it all out. Neither of them seed to have a clue of what was really going on. I guess it was because neither of them had access to my mother's diaries at the ti.
"I think I might know."
The two of them turned to look at like they thought that I was crazy. They didn't see how soone who wasn't even alive at the ti could possibly know what had been going on. They just didn't know what it was that I knew.
"No offense, Astraia, but how could you possibly know?" My father asked with a confused look.
"Yes, Star, I hate to doubt you and all, but I do not see how you would know anything about this situation since you were the only one not around at the ti."
"To be fair, I may not have been alive at the ti, but I have been privy to information that neither of you have been. I have my mother's journals. I have read them and know what had happened to her at the ti that you knew her. Plus, I have spoken to my great great grandfather. I can put it all together and figure out who the culprit was for all of this. And I just wish he was still alive so that I could kill him myself."
I had never felt an anger boil in like this before. Not even when the man in question was tornting . I felt it now though, as I saw just how much he had ddled in the lives of my family, just how many people he had affected. He was a sick, twisted monster, and I was glad that he was dead. Even if I wanted to kill him myself, I was glad he was dead.
