Alex had decided to attend his cousin’s wedding some odd-thousand kilometres away. His parents were left to move house.

Hey Sexy,

I’m back. Had a good time but it was a long drive. Missed you. Got interrogated by family and was told to behave by Tom - was planning that anyway so no worry.

Sorry we got cut off. Money ran out.

Going away for a few days on Wednesday. I have to go and make nice to family. Thinking of you - must be getting all soppy in my old age. Who would have thought?

I was bold. I love you too.
