"Here," she hands me a glass of milk and a plate of cookies.

"Thank you, Mother Heidi." I take them and shyly place them on the desk.

"I hope you feel better." She returns to her seat behind the desk. "You'll only be here for three days. Maybe you need to rest more."

"With your milk and cookies, I might just feel better tomorrow when I wake up."

I smile and her and she laughs. "That's the spirit!"

I look at the milk and cookies, and debate whether these would kill me or not.

"Go on," she urges me with a smile.

The milk, she could easily spike. The cookies, they're solid, so if she put anything on them, it would show. Powder would contrast the color, liquid would make it wet. Plus, she couldn't have made it in a few minutes; it must have been preprepared.

We're getting closer and closer to the truth. Join Azure in his investigation in Mother Heidi's Office as he roots out the real traitor in the Chapel.

Letter Addressed To The Fire is a story told through documents, articles, newspaper, letters, diaries, journals, and the likes, aside from the perspective of the main characters. It also explores the loneliness of Azure and Caramella Red, and how they found solace in one another amidst the chaos of their rivaling groups. Will they or will they not remain platonic...? That is for you, reader, to find out :wink:

Synopsis:

Twelve years ago, Azure Skylar, the Knight of the Cross of the unparalleled syndicate, the Chapel, was favored by the Pope himself to work on a mission that would determine the fate of their entire group against their growing rival, the Empire.

Twelve years ago, Azure met Caramella Red Aberdeign and found a friend in her. For once, he knew rest, quiet, peace, and comfort. Little did he know that Caramella Red was also the infamous Sweet Crimson, the ace assassin of their growing rival, the Empire.

A mistake, a wrong decision, a missed opportunity, all wrapped in the same regret that led to the ink on paper weeping about all that should have been said and done before time came and went. A story inspired by Taylor Swift's Evermore, Letter Addressed to the Fire will take you to a trip down the star-crossed soulmates' memory lane and tell you about all that was only whispered in the wind twelve years ago.

It’s ten minutes to ten by the time I’ve finished reviewing Shaun’s chapter, Angie’s edits, and sent the new edits to Ms. Lay.

It’s a quarter to eleven by the time I’ve showered, brushed my teeth, and put my hair into a dozen thick braids to protect it for the morning.

When I lay down, I expect to fall asleep immediately, but I don’t.

I can hear Mr. and Mrs. Holly arguing downstairs.

I guess he just got home.

I can hear cars outside honking their horns and screeching to sharp stops and my ears ring with each new stimulus.

50 more years of this?

Assuming I live a long life, I wonder how long a normal person could stay sane in this routine.

But I’m not normal. Probably not even sane.
