The
first letter arrived the day my husband was buried. It was postmarked
from the state penitentiary, and contained a single sentence:
I’ll wait forever if I have to.
It was signed by Dante, a man I didn’t know.
Out of simple curiosity, I wrote back to ask him what exactly he was waiting for. His reply?
You.
I told the mystery man he had the wrong girl. He said he didn’t. I said we’d never met, but he said I was wrong.
We
went back and forth, exchanging letters every week that grew
increasingly more intimate. Then one day, the letters stopped. When I
found out why, it was already too late.
