Thomas,

I'm glad it wasn't me, too. Does it make me a bad person that I don't feel an ounce of dread? You'd think that watching someone die would at least make you feel something, but I'm only eager to put the whole thing behind me. The sooner my family stops making a fuss of it the better. I couldn't tell you how my siblings are handling it, but I heard Bethany crying last night. I tried to say something, but she closed her door. I can't think of anything to say.

Maybe it's a good idea to get out. Maybe the zoo? The beach? Anything is better than nothing at this point.

- Henry
