Dear Julia:

It has taken me years, I know, but I finally realize what a fool I have been.

I love you, Julia. More than anything in the world, I want you to be my wife. I hope we can build a life together that others would envy, with riches in health, wealth and children. Imagine our children, Julia--a lovely little girl with your red hair, and a handsome son with my dark hair. Whether they inherit your green eyes or my hazel ones won't matter--they will be beautiful children! And imagine all the fun we will have making them together.

I am eagerly awaiting your response.

All my love, my darling--

Barnabas



Julia's response:

Dear Barnabas:

I am flattered by your proposal, but I'm afraid you are too late.

Adam returned to town two days ago. Stokes really DID spend the bucks to have his scars removed. God, what a hunk. He's tall, devastatingly handsome, and hung like. . .well, I don't want to make you feel any worse than I'm sure you already do.

Anyway, Adam proposed, I accepted, and we got married in Collinsport Village Hall yesterday. If things went as planned, I'm already knocked up with his baby--and if so, OUR kid won't be too shabby-looking, either!

If you'd only come to this realization a couple of days ago, Barnabas, WE would be married now.

Didn't someone once say, "He who will not while he may, when he will, he shall have nay."

You have nay.

Sorry!

With regrets (but not many),

Mrs. Adam Collins
