Letter for Candi Ramirez

[BlueSails]

Taylor slipped the small piece of paper into the Ramirez mailbox and hoped it wouldn't be mistaken for a piece of trash. Why didn't his daughter just give it at school? He remembered her friend the other day, wasn't he a Ramirez? Brow furrowing slightly, Taylor left the house and went back to work.

LETTER TO CANDI RAMIREZ

---

Hey, Candi,

I'm really, really, sorry, but I'm not going to make it today for our date. I know you have to rest, and the doctors have confined me to bed rest for three days. Guess I really did take a beating.

I want to say thanks for visiting me in my room last night, though I don't remember it that well. My head still feels pretty foggy.

When I get better--I promise--I'll take you out. Besides, you can't possibly say no to someone who saved your life, right?

Just kidding. Go or don't go. Just do whatever...makes you happy.

--Zack

Candi dropped the keys into the glass tray of the center table once again. She had dropped off her younger siblings to school while her mother had left during that time. Not to mention, that since she and her mother would make a deal that she'd rest for the day...Candi was basically trapped within the four confinements of her home.

'Great just great...Wonder if there's anything in the mail...'

Everyday, it was she who would check the mail. It had become a habit of hers since the first time her father asked if she could check the mail for him. So the 'injured' adult headed out the door and to the mail box, expecting to find bills. Opening the mail box she took the stack of envelops and headed into the house.

After getting situated comfortably on top of the couch in the living room she checked through the mail.

Advertisement, taxes, advertisement, Letter to Candi Ramirez, advertis--wait a minute...

Candi took the envelope that was addressed to her and put the rest of the envelopes on the side table. Opening the letter she read it...It was from Zack. And only from that tiny fact her stomach started to flutter and her face slightly redenned.

'Get a hold of yourself Candi!' she thought as she shook her head and reread the letter.

Since the mailman wasn't going to come over for awhile and since taking a walk would technically calm her. Candi would be obliging Zack with her presence. After all the real person would be better rather than the letter right?
