𝐈 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐡𝐢𝐦 𝐭𝐨 𝐰𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐦𝐞 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤… My best friend has roped me into this pen pal program he found on social media. Part of me feels like it’s just a heartbreak waiting to happen. I get attached to people too easily. So, when I finally get my military pen pal’s picture and information, I do my best to keep myself distant. Yet I can’t stop my heart from hoping. What I never expected was for him to write me back…or ask me to meet him when he flies home on Christmas Eve. I agree to meet him at the airport, but the entire time I’m waiting for him, I can’t help but worry. What if we’re not meant to know each other beyond letters? What if he takes one look at me and decides I’m not what he wanted after all? **𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘳𝘵 𝘔𝘔 𝘳𝘰𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦.
