ABOUT BONNIE

 [Hank's story #3]

 

Hey Hank
It's me, Joe - Bonnie's brother. I don't go by Joey anymore.

Something bad happened to Bonnie. We buried her on Tuesday.

The reason I'm writing is to let you know that we found a box with your letters in it and a letter that Bonnie was going to send to you. I'll just tell you what she said in it because it's a bit messed up and hard to read from the bloodstains. You won't want to see it.

She didn't say much.

This is it -
Hank,
I can't ever come back.
The demons got my soul and won't let go.
B.

Anyway, maybe someday soon I'll come down your way and visit.
Sorry for the bad news.
Joe
