April 13th, 1891
Dear Mama and Papa,
I'm very glad you're okay, Zen too. I can't wait to see you, I know there's not long now until summer but it seems like forever away.
I drew this for you. I drew it from memory and I'm still not as good at drawing people as I am animals, but I think it might be my best portrait yet.
Your son,
Nico

[Tucked into the envelope is a sketch of Matilda and Dom. They'd both be smiling except Nico couldn't remember what Dom's face looks like when he does that so it's just Matilda smiling and Dom's mouth looks odd, like you can almost tell Nico tried to make him smile and then overcorrected it.]
