FEBRUARY 1975

Dearest Evie,

Well, I’ve done it. I told Noah I believed our family was cursed. If he really intends to marry me, he should know this, even if I don’t think he quite believed me. I couldn’t quite bring myself to confess about the bigger issue lingering between us, though. How does one tell their beloved that they can heal with their hands? That her sister can too, and her brother can persuade others, and yet another sister can see the future?

I’ve wanted to, though. The words sit on the tip of my tongue, burning. That’s when I remember he’s told me his father left his mother for being a witch. I see the way Noah’s angelic face curls in disgust as the words leave his beautiful mouth.

Only months ago I was telling you how I might never marry, but here I am, planning to marry a man I’ve only just met. You must think I’m mad. I sometimes think it.

And then I watch him, thoughts buried in his notes, or in the moments after we’ve made love and he’s fallen asleep, and I know I’m not. I need to find the courage to tell Mom, but I know she worries about me enough, across the world.

Can I really marry a man who doesn’t know what I am… and can never know? My fool’s heart aches at the thought of losing him. Pray for me.

Love,

Colleen
