The Letters

Dear Princess Maggie,

I’m so sorry. I was just really hung up on this girl and I’m sure you’ll understand someday when you meet a boy that you like. She was the first girl my age that actually noticed me and I just didn’t want her to think that I was being a loser by paying attention to you. But I just realized that if she didn’t accept that she is and will always be number two when it comes to my precious Maggie.

I’ve forgotten who is and always will be my princess and hold the number one spot in my heart. And that’s you Princess Maggie.

Princess Maggie, will you forgive me for being such an utterly mean person. I’d like to say other bad words that you’re too young to hear. I truly hope that you’ll find it in your heart to forgive me.
Your daddy told me that your mommy was committed to the mental hospital again and you were home alone when she had one of her episodes. I’m so sorry Mags. I’m so sorry for not being there for you.

I miss you a lot!

Hopefully Your Knight,

Gus
