I wish you would come back, really I do. Christmas is coming and I wish to celebrate it with you. Remember that one year we went to France? You told me you loved it there and wanted to visit next year - I was certain we would.
Anyway, I am doing fine, Mrs. Gavinns has been a dear and is helping me through these hard times. She does not know about these letters, and I fear that she might fret if she finds out; might call me delusional and the like. But I am sure this will help.

My life is not treating me well. No one understands how much I long for you, and I am afraid of the others finding about these letters. You are here, I can feel your warmth everywhere.
Everyday I miss you more and more. Mrs. Gavinns tells me you are better off now, but oh! I don’t think I can bear this anymore. She tells me I will slowly move on after a while, but it has been 7 months and I can still see your face. Though I try. I know you would want me to be strong.
Christmas is coming around and I hope the merriment will finally cheer me up, though I doubt it. Dr. Benson said I have a ‘case of nerves’, and suggested taking a walk outside. So I strolled around the neighbourhood today. The snow has already laid down quite thickly. I wonder who would win if we had a snowball fight. You were always good at aiming a snowball right at my face.
I was right. This makes me feel much happier. But why are my eyes still watering? I am confused and scared. Come back please, Darla. Please. Save me from this torment.

I have come to terms with the fact that my life is colourless without you. You were the only one who made me feel anything. I can not keep living this way any longer. I can hear the children singing carols outside, and the snow continues to fall.
If you were here, we would be sitting in front of our fireplace, sharing a cup of hot cocoa. You would plead with me to let the children outside in so that they could have some of your cookies. Or maybe we would be in France, and you would feed me those delicious pastries they have there. I never cared for the Christmas cheer. You did. Now, I am sitting at my desk, writing this note to you with a revolver at my side.
I decided to do this a few days back. Life is not fair, and I don’t think I can ever spend a Christmas without you. After this, we will be together with you again and then we will spend every moment together forever and ever.
Mrs. Gavinns has been a sweetheart and I gave her half of all my belongings. The woman jumped up and down in joy, I tell you, when I told her she will get some gifts from me tomorrow. You know me, I was always a bit of a Scrooge. But I am afraid she will grieve for me too much to appreciate the gifts.
I will see you soon, my love, my darling Darla. Merry Christmas.
