At the hospital a
Doctor informs Natalie and the Van Hause family that he was sorry.
There was nothing he could have done. It was too late. Jonas was
already dead upon arriving at the ER room.
He hands an
envelope to Natalie saying, “I think this was meant for you.”
Printed on the
outside of the envelope, it reads; To
My Loving Natalie, Please For Your Beautiful Eyes Only.
Later at home,
crying alone in her bedroom, she opens up the envelope.
First, she pulls
out a colored picture of, what she thinks is, Jonas's Grandfather. A
person she has never met and wonders why it would be in the envelope?
Then she pulls out
the letter and reads it.
Dear Beautiful and
Wonderful Girl of Mine, Natalie,
If you are reading
this, then something has happened to me before I am able to see you
give birth to our Son.
Sorry I can't be
there for you.
Don't be too
unhappy, because of my death, for too long of time please. I know you
must grieve some, but just know that I truly do love you and I know
that you'll be a fantastic Mother to our child. You must move on for
the sake of our son. He will need you.
And yes, I know in
my heart it will be a boy!
I like the name
Allenby.
When he starts to
grow up, steer him away from Physics. See if you can lead him in the
direction of Politics. I can already see him becoming a great
President someday who will change the World.
You may think my
life has been cut short, but what a wonderful life it has been.
I had you to share
it with and the thought that we are having a Son together, I couldn't
have asked for more.
I know he will
make us both proud!
I Love You My Dear
and Please, Live Life to Its Fullest!
Jonas
P.S. I have one last
request for you. And, without sounding too morbid, please adhere to
it. It really does mean a lot to me if you would follow my last
request.
Don't ever live in
Paris, London, Moscow, Beijing or New York. I have this feeling it
will be a matter of life and death for you and my son.
P.S.S. Sorry if this
scares you, but trust me on this, OK?
I Love You Natalie,
Forever!
