Letter to Helia

[Demeter]

Dear Helia,

I wish to apologize for my actions at the start of term dance. I realize it wasn't fair of me to "lead you on" the way I did. I confess I did have feelings for you, but I guess, I always did care for Professor Palladium.

I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me and at least allow me to still be your friend.

Yours in friendship,
Flora

Dear Flora,

'Tis not in my nature to never forgive. I do forgive you, with respect of you admitting this.
A friend of mine you request, then a friend of mine you shall stay.

Thru friendship I'm yours,
Helia

Dear Helia,

I know I'm rather early, but I might be going home for Christmas this year so I wanted to get this sent to you now. The contents should be helpful for exams and stuff. Parcel number one in this mammoth box: herbal sleeping aids - purchased from my mother's shop. Her herbal sleep aids are one of the chief items we sell during exam times. I apologize for the rose scent but well, roses are the chief ingredient in the sleep aid. Parcel number two: paints - handmade by the way. It was nearly impossible to find the right shade of blue to make those lovely blue paints (but then I am a bit bias towards the blues). I do hope you like the paints, I'm sure they'll come in handy when you start painting again. Parcel number three: books - blank books to be exact. Now you have a place to store your poetry, uh, that is if you write any... Either that or you could use them to write your school notes. And finally, parcel number four: a book of poetry. I found it while I was on a shopping trip and I thought instantly of you. It's by this writer from earth, Alfred Lord Tennyson. Thought maybe, if you wrote poetry, not saying you do, oh, looking me, stuttering in a letter, anyway, thought maybe if you wrote poetry, that you might get some inspiration.

yours forever in friendship,
Flora
