The Letters
Hi Jamie!
How are you? I miss you a lot…
Nana says you are going to school in England, And that you will have to do homework and have something weird called exams? Can you imagine, it's super funny, you have homework about magic, what's next theyll teach you how to pull a rabbit from a hat, or make a toad into a cup? Doesn't sound very witchy to me.
It sounds super boringgg, if you had stayed we could have learned from nana and the rest of the coven like proper witches do, we could have lessons and then the rest of the day we could play games, or explore, we would have had a million adventures the two of us together like always. But I guess you'll meet more kids of our age, so that's good, I hope that you make A LOT of friends. Maybe I could talk to Nana about letting them visit when you come this summer, wouldn't that be cool?
But you better not forget me, or i'll find you and … well i'll be very very mad that's for sure.
I'll try to pick you those pretty shells you like, so you can put them in the window of your new room like i do so we match.
Honestly I'm a little jealous that you get to meet new people, I'm gonna be sooo bored without you, but well we'll see eachother this summer anyway so I guess I can wait.
I miss you.
Write me next week?
Love, your supreme ruler, Mar-Mar the Great.

Hi Jam-Jam? Pottie?
(I'm still working on it)
I hope you are having fun.
Nana says you´re pretty busy with school and with moving, she still talks with Untie Mia and Uncle Monty.
I hope you got my letter, I don't really know how the mail there works, Nana sent the letter.
Hey, on the bright side, the coven says I'm ready to begin my practical lessons, I'm super excited. I'm still not 11 yet, but they made an exception now that I'm the only kid left in the coven. Sorry.
I… I guess you were angry that i didn't write before, but i sent you the shells and the birthday cards and i-i to be honest i was a little mad when you left, and writing in english was difficult for me, but now im better and i guess you have forgotten all your spanish too.
It's just you could have written me back, i haven't heard from you apart from what Nana tells me from your parents. I know you're mad but can you forgive me?I swear I'll name my firstborn after you or something, BETTER Yet my first Cat, I'm going to get one for my next birthday, Ain't that awesome!!!
Just, stop being mad.
Please?
Your best cousin who loves you.
Mar-Mar

James,
I guess you are still mad or whatever but I need you to write to me back please.
I m having these really really bad nightmares… and
It's not the first time they have happened but…
Its just they always end with you dying or some other terrible thing, like crying babies and such.
I just know you are mad but I'm going crazy over this.
Please write me back.
Love you Marie.

Hi James,
Are you alive? Did I do something? i just….
You stay in the stupid castle in yule, and you dont come in the summers.
I was scared and you still haven't written me back, and I'm getting tired of you ignoring me.
Did you replace me?
Have you forgotten about me? About the family?Our Coven?
It's not fair that I'm the only one reaching out.
Write. Back
Angelica.
