The Stage is Set

I've wanted to talk to you for the past three months, but all I got was hostile letters when I was trying to find ground with you, Novella. The swirling of the glass stopped, and she set the crystal aside. They're a packet that my family has had drawn up since my aunt married a mining baron. Auntie was the trendsetter in our family. Mother, well, my father isn't her first husband.

Kaczor came from a line of divorcees, something she had never wanted for herself. Did you, even once, ever love me?
