Roxanna's Letter to her Son |
"I've got to finish this business-contract for my boss. I really need
this job. Maybe, if I have time, I can type my son Brandon a letter."
Dear Brandon, just a few words to let you know that I miss you
immensely.
And also to tell you how proud I am of you for going to
school, continue your education. And for breaking the family curse as
far as the men in our family going to prison and to jails.
I just want to let you know Brandon, that I think we should get some
family counseling. That way you can talk to someone about your problems
and any hurt that I may have done to you in the past. I want our family
to become whole again, and heal the pain that it may have.
By the way, when I get my check on Friday, I'll bring some money to buy
you some school clothes. If you're not there I'll leave it with your
grandmother. Love, Mam. |
