Dear Kitty,
Sorry it took me so long to get back to you–-it's been pretty crazy around here what with Nathan still getting better from being brainwashed, and Shiro and Alex got back from Japan with Shiro's little sister in tow, apparently his family kicked him out of the country on pain of death, which even if he can be kind of a jerk sometimes is way worse than anybody deserves, especially from family.
Artie's nursing a bit of a crush on his sister already. It's very funny. I'm trying not to laugh at him too loudly on account of it wasn't that long ago I was his age and having confusing secret crushes on people . . . but, y'know, he was such a little brat when I was still working out how I felt about you–-which is, in case you were wondering, since I haven't said so in this letter yet, I love you with all my heart–-that I can't help being a little amused. Okay, a lot amused. Okay, amused to the point where I'm leaving plastic cooties all over his room.
And that's the other reason things've been hectic around here–everybody moved to a whole other wing of the mansion, which I guess 'Yana told you, and I had a moment of weird because . . . well, geez, it's the Professor's house, but it's big enough that everybody can change wings and not bump elbows with anybody. I think I kinda forget sometimes just how rich he must be. But we still have adjoining wall, I made sure.
I bet you can imagine how worried I am about what your mom's going to say, but I know we'll be together again one of these days, one way or another–-I mean, if nothing else, Google says there's 19 colleges in Chicago, and I need to start looking anyway.
That's the absolute last-ditch fall-back position, though. Ideally your mom'll decide that yeah, even with all the freaky stuff that goes on here, it really is the best place for you to be right now, and buy you a plane ticket. Here's hoping.
And if it'll help, my mom and dad had to decide about all this stuff too, and I'm sure they wouldn't mind talking to your parents about why they haven't yanked me yet. In fact, that's me passing on an official request from my mom, to see if your mom wants to chat.
I love you. And miss you. And I hope your mom's idea of the right thing to do and our idea of the right thing to do turn out about the same.
Love,
Jamie
