Dear Rita #2

Dear Rita

August 21^st 1992

I can’t help myself now, it’s a habit that I can’t break. My parents are so blind. It’s hurts when they don’t notice me, when they turn me away. I found my father with another woman yesterday. He said that if I told my mother that she would be heartbroken. I don’t think she will because she has been sleeping with my math teacher for about 4 months now. Its sad that they don’t love each other as much as they don’t love me, but I guess it means I shouldn’t take it personally. Sometimes I don’t even know why we pretend to be a family.

I know you would Rita.

It’s nice that you care.

It sounds awful there! But then again, being numb maybe wouldn’t be such a bad thing. No fear, no pain. Almost like death.

Thinking of you to

Alex

Its sad to see that Alex really has no family. I like the way you gradually reveal little bits of information.

Again. Spelling. Last line before "Alex"

I really enjoy writing like this, and after my other one was popular I thought hey, what the heck! Thanks for all the reviews Chelsea, if there is anything you want me to review, give me a shout!

I also agree and that's very sad that the parents are emotionally neglecting Alex..which makes him seek for company of a woman who may not really be in her right mind. This is tragedy. But I love it too.

Thank you both very much for the thoughtful reviews!
