Chapter Text
Daddy,
I know I say this in every single letter, but everything is happening SO fast. Betty's been gone almost two weeks now. Penelope for one. And all of us are sitting on nails, just waiting for something else to go terribly wrong. Everyone's getting impatient. If one more person goes home, Jason has to choose then. And him and I know who he's choosing. Nobody else does, though.
He said that during the Halloween party he asked for your blessing. Is that true? And what did you say?
I miss you so much. I wish that everything could just go perfectly so you and Mom can come visit and stay. You can live in the palace someday with us.
No one could replace you, Dad, but the king really is trying. He's told me to call him by his first name. And he says he hopes that I'll be the daughter he never had. It's intimidating. But he's so kind to me. I wouldn't mind him as a father-in-law. (But you're still my favorite <3)
Oh, my maids say hello!
I really really do wish you were here. I need your advice, too. Everything is coming to a close and I don't know what the hell I'm doing. You could be ruling this country too. I've been taking extra lessons and sitting in on meetings with the other Selected. Jason's been telling me everything he knows. The king has been giving me publicity tips. They all think I could really do this. I don't know if I can.
I love you and Mom and I hope I can see you soon! (Maybe at an engagement party...?)
Your Hopefully Princess To Be,
Nica
