A Letter

A short prose

   The envelope could have been replaced quite easily. No one comes into that room.

   Had someone remembered the liquor that was hidden in the room, he would not have gone in to feed his already intoxicated guests and it had been. He went in to get the liquor and the table never existed.

   A man came knocking at the door unexpectedly to retrieve something. James was confused and was led back into the room and saw the letter there again. Still, he did not pay any attention to it.

   "Maybe Pricilla might." He finally said her name but she was gone. The men insisted he finds her since she was the only person who could help the family trying to save the case of an illegitimate child who was now trying to leave.

   He responded cooly every time her name was mentioned. But as this situation was interrupting his current plans and justifying his curiosity he decides to go and find her.

    She left a great big trail to follow but it seems she wanted to hide and yet not getaway. She had been acting distant and cold. They don't even know each other too well but she seemed odd since it was not in her nature. Since they never really crossed paths with each other personally before.

   Finally, he finds her, she was really to leave when she opened the door and found him standing there. With the shock in her eyes, the release in his, he walked into the room shutting the door behind him.

   Suddenly her urgency in her eyes turned and he asked why she wanted to leave but she had wanted something first.  

   "And the child?" he asked with his head bending to the side slightly.

   "I did have the papers." She looked at him with a determined face and then, looked at him expectedly.

   Nodding his head towards her, he walked towards her and bending slightly to pick her up by her thighs, and lifted her dress to get in between them.
