Dear Charlie,

I am so happy to hear from you again! And with such good news! Can you imagine that? Both of us married! Who would’ve thought that two girls in our situations could find time for romance in our lives! First and foremost though, I want to congratulate you on finally getting into journalism. I know that’s something you’ve been wanting for a long time now, and I’m so glad you finally got it! I know you’ll go far in that career. As for your relationship with Connor- if it’s love, then it’s worth it, and if it’s not, then it wouldn’t have lasted anyway so why worry (regarding business relations I mean). I’m glad it was love. And the pictures of your home! It’s so beautiful, I can’t even imagine! You have a bookcase and a computer and everything! I’m determined to get there myself someday, but not anytime soon I fear. You see, I have a little secret of my own. I’m pregnant! With twins!

Charlie, you can’t imagine how conflicted I feel. I’ve always wanted a big family, and Christopher is the perfect man for the job, I swear he was made in heaven he’s so amazing. But I can help but fear that this will delay my dreams of becoming a professional singer. I’ve worked so hard to become well established in the music industry and I’ve been progressing so fast! I honestly don’t want to have to choose between my kids and my career, but I’m afraid it’s a choice I’ll be forced to make, whether I want to or not. In other news, we finally got Sushi a new companion: a cat from the shelter named Sake. This gives Sushi someone to play with while I take care of other things around the house, it’s such a relief not to have worry about her being lonely.

In any case, I’m just feeling a little cornered I guess… I just don’t know what I’m going to do. The worry eats away at me everyday. Already my manager has told me I’m too pregnant to perform. Did you know there was such a thing as being too pregnant to sing on stage? I’ve tried to take up painting to pass the time, but it’s not the same. Oh well, I hope you have better luck than me.

-Sean
