Dear Paul,

You will probably grow up never hearing my name. If we do see each other, you will not look at me any differently from the way you look at anyone else. Perhaps, when you are old enough to realize, you might see me looking at you with a soft smile on my face and you, might wonder who I am and why I am gazing at you this way. if you ask your parents about me, they won't tell you anything. We will remain strangers.

But maybe, just maybe, on a night as warm and as lonely as this one is for me, you will feel a strange longing and you will realize something is missing. You may never tell anyone about this feeling, but it will be there and it will come often.

And then, one day, when you're old enough to put the feeling into a thought, you will remember the young girl who looked at you with such love and you will realize there was something more in her eyes.

Maybe you will confront your father or your mother and maybe, just maybe, they will be forced to tell you the truth.

I wonder then if you will hate me for deserting you. I wonder if you will want to know me. I wonder if we will ever have a conversation.

If we did, I would tell you that when you were born, I thought it was glorious and I was filled with such love for you, I feared my heart would burst. I would tell you I spent night after night crying when I thought about you. I would tell you I was sorry.

Of course, you might hate your father and resent your stepmother, so I have to think hard before I tell you these things. It might be that for your sake I never do, because your happiness is far more important to me than my own.

I just want you to know I love you, and even though I didn't want it to happen, you became a part of me and always will be.

Love,

Your mother Gabrielle
