“In a way, it makes me feel better that the truth has been told,” Sabrina said.
Silvie put her arm around Sabrina. “I’m sorry that you’ve been through something so awful at your young age.”
“It’s my own fault for making bad choices. From now on, I’ll not do anything that I could not stand up and tell the congregation of.”
Silvie gave a little laugh. “Jah, that must have been awful.”
“It was, but now I know why the bishop made me do it. Now, I feel clean and can live my life the way that Gott would want me to live.” Sabrina bounded to her feet. “I forgot to tell you, this arrived today.” Sabrina retrieved a letter from the top of the bureau.
Silvie took the letter from her. She knew at once that it was another letter from Bailey. Sabrina walked out of the room while Silvie pulled the letter in toward her heart. Was she at risk of making the same mistake that Sabrina had made? Was Gott trying to warn her not to get involved with this Englischer? After all, what guarantee did she have that Bailey was ever going to join the community?
She placed the letter on the couch beside her, pulled her knees up under her full dress and hugged them to her chest. She knew she was one step away from falling into something from which there would be no return. Silvie saw what love had done to Sabrina. It had made her lose all sense and control. As Silvie ripped the envelope open, her heart felt just as torn.
Her mood took a turn for the better when she scanned the words of the letter to read:
Just six more months and if I have not closed the case within that time, I will leave my job and come back to you, my dearest Silvie.
