//------------------------------// // A Reminder // Story: A Runaway's Letter // by Inspiration //------------------------------// Dear Mom, I kept my promise. Unlike you ever could. I did as I said I would do. None of the hypocrisy. "I won't hit you again, I promise. Yeah, and I'll stop writing these letters and come home. Do you get the point I'm trying to make? I'm betting you don't. I'm putting my bits on you being drunk. Like you always are. Spark has been really, really nice to me and everypony she talks to. You would like her, too. But we won't give each other a chance to meet our parents. We do have to thank the two of you, though. You made us mature fast. Made us fit for the real world. You made us know what to do. So, thanks for that. Have you been going to any AA meetings? Or been buying less beers or anything? I'm betting that the answer is "no." It's all you need to do to make me start to visit a bit. The less alcohol you have, the more I'll see you. Fair deal. You know it is. I don't have a lot of time to write this. Me and Spark are going to the park. So, yeah. I'll send more later. Sprint
