Our final installment to this little mini romance is below. Keira and I hope you loved our little creative joint writing project, "Letters to a Lonely Cowboy." At the end of the post there's a form for you to drop ideas for future mini-tales. Thanks for reading!
Read parts one, two, or three.
Part Four:
December 2, 1888
To My Dearest Walter,
I must confess that I considered not writing this letter and surprising you, but I found I could not help myself. After your last reply I was so overwhelmed by happiness and anxieties. But I am back to my usual self and no doubt half my way to you!
Indeed! You read correctly. I am on my way to you my dearest Walter and hope to arrive by the eve of our lord’s birth. I fully intend to sing carols by your side.
I cannot express the joy I felt when you asked me if I would be “amenable to a poor settler’s life.”
I know that I will make a good wife for you. I will be there to work next to you, bear your children, and raise the good children in the town. I simply cannot contain myself and could not wait another moment to be with you.
I feel as if we know each other already and that God has sent us both the key to our happiness. He has given us each other and by His Grace we will live long and happy lives together.
Watch the horizon, my love. I am coming.
Ever yours,
Clara
