[Then comes along an unassuming little text file.]
[One titled Ode to Janet.]
Every month I've brought to see the words of a madman boding ill to come. Does he really believe those cold emoticons to read sincere?
Words of reason, crisp, professional, the first respite in a tumultous storm. Though her refreshing manner can't bring the cycle to a due end, give us Janet, any day, over Jim.
We can't help but pity the brave soul that must endure his obsessive attentions, and admire her courage in the face of adversity. Godspeed, lady with eyes still blue, be safe, evade his proposal, and flee to the sea.
[Freya largely didn't do embarrassment. This was one of those rare exceptions.]
Late July

[She hopes Pen knows her well enough by now to know that's a genuine thanks, since text can't really portray a shift in tone well.]
