Dear Addy,
I’m not sure when you’ll be able to pick up your emails, but hopefully this will reach you OK. Your mobile phone isn’t working – I assume you need to get a French one? Please let me have the new number as soon as you do. We really need to talk. Chris has been asking about you – she was really worried. Well, we all are.
I’ve been thinking about what you said. About needing more from life. About the fact you’ve never fit in. But don’t you think it might just be finding those papers that has made you feel that way? You never seemed unhappy before.
I get that you need to ‘find yourself.’ But do you really think moving to a French backwater is going to do that for you?
You need to come home. Not for me. But for YOU. I get it, why you did what you did. You want answers. But Addy, there won’t be any answers there.
You’re in shock, maybe. But the last thing you should be right now is alone. You’re grieving – we both are… Just please get on a plane and we’ll sort this out together.
Kev
