I thought he was her lover too but after those comments up there ^^ I guess he was her brother. anyways I really liked this. I liked how you explained things even though it was a letter and you made him sound so wise and mature. I loved it.
Psh, forget my entry! This was utterly amazing! You have fantastic writing skills, honestly! I thought of Dexter as being a lover, just because of when he wrote that she married his best friend, since he couldn't be there to comfort her. I don't know, that's just what I got. I also didn't expect him to be dying, but it was a great twist, a sad one though. I guess when you know that your death is coming close, you tend to take the chances you wish you'd had the guts to do all along. I loved it! ;)
wow, that was really great. i didn't expect him to be dying though. and i thought of him as her lover, not brother. but now that you mention , a brother would be a pretty good choice too. i guess i know why you couldn't decide!
