My dearest Tian,

I am happy to have another letter from you again so soon..



Today the Caretaker put my hair up. I think it looks rather nice, it makes me feel more like myself..



Ah..I understand and feel your frustration just as strongly. The Caretaker says he is not certain when we will get to come, but is still hoping that we will be able to come down on Monday..



If not then at least I will have the Aquarium..yes. The Caretaker has said he will be able to stay for a very long visit, four days! Or..well two days and three nights but it is still so wonderful..



I try not to wonder too much about whatever it was that binds us together. I am ever thankful for it..



I believe it would be perhaps unkind to what we have to think of it too much..



But..as you say, never mind it, it is..as it is. Things will be as they are one way or another, I would not give up my love for you..



But I am rambling, never mind it. That is a lovely picture, I am touched that your Landlady drew such a fine portrait of me. Perhaps she will give me one of you that I may have to be near when you are not..



I heard a story that many women keep their long hair bundled atop their head until their wedding night..



I would like to have such a night with you and let you take down my hair slowly..to feel your fingers brushing lightly against my skin..



Ah, but again my mind wanders and I ramble. Be strong my love, our time will come to be together again soon..
