Hey, Ainz!

Seeing you over Christmas break was just what I needed. I adore the pink plush pig you gave me for Christmas! It has usurped the place of honour from Rudyard, the plush tiger you gave me last year, and is now sitting on top of my pillow in my little badger cave. (The badger cave is nothing more than what I call my canopy bed at school in case you were wondering). I still have not come up with a great name for her yet. Dad suggested I call her Bacon. **eyeroll** Uhhh, no way!

Annnnnnyway, I knew I missed you and Kendric, but I did not realize just how much until I had to return. Then something kind of wonderful and strange happened shortly after getting back here, but it sort of un-happened today, I think. I remember the blood oath you and Kendric and I took to be best friends forever and tell each other everything and help each other no matter what, but this I cannot tell him because I think it would hurt his feelings, and I would really like for you not to tell him either. It will not be much of a secret to have to keep anyway because, as you may recall, I did mention an un-happening.

I met a boy and kind of fell into some serious "like" with him. I thought he felt the same way, but nope. I found out this morning he has a girlfriend! Can you believe that? I would like to be able to scream Schmuck at him, but he had a terrible accident this morning that put him in the hospital. He was unconscious for a couple of hours and I would be lying if I said I was not scared for him. Once I knew he was going to be okay, the anger I had felt was mostly gone and was just replaced with sadness and confusion. I guess now I get to try and avoid him and pretend like I do not like him. I know, Ainz, you have some experience in this as you pretend not to "like-like" Kendric, (even though you do not avoid him -- HOW do you do that???). If you have any tips or tricks as to how to do it, I could sure use them because honestly, all I feel like I want to do right now is cry, and I feel like if I start that, I may not stop.

Long distance hugs,
~AF

P.S. When you write back, just tell Archimedes the letter is for me and he will find me.

P.P.S. Give Hillary a big hug for me. I also have in my badger cave the photo Mom sent of the two of you cuddled together. Love that photo! [/font]

Dear AF,

I agree with your Da! Bacon is a great name!!! Or better yet, Porkchop!

As for your boy trouble, I wish I had something helpful to tell you. There is nothing easy about liking someone who doesn't like you back. Boys are just clueless sometimes. And weird. I would have said they are the word that starts with a "d" and rhymes with numb, but I have been scolded for saying that too often.

Kendric is one of my two best friends. With you gone, how would I ever be able to stay away from him? I would have nobody if I did that. I did try it once to see if he would notice. He didn't, but it did not even last a day. We are science partners for the year. I sort of forgot that at the time I hatched that plan. Maybe if you are not his science partner or if your new school is larger, avoiding him will be easier. Or you could just try being his friend only. At least you'd get to see him then. Warning: this is hard to do. How cute is he??? The cuter he is the harder it is. I hope for your sake he is ugly!

Found this old photo of you and Kendric in my scrapbook. Was taken in 2018 when you were still shorter than him. I have a copy so you can have this one. If your fellow is ugly, then looking at the most handsome boy who ever lived should make you feel better.

Miss you,
Ainz
