Friendship Over — page 3
Dearest Celie For my tenth birthday my father gave me a punching bag and suggested that I slug it instead of slamming doors and hitting my brother And that is how I became the world-famous boxer I am today Okay As you well know I am not a world-famous boxer I am instead a mild-mannered lawyer However it was fun having a punching bag and it did cause at least a small decline in the number of times I hit my brother And so today for your tenth birthday I present to you a sporty punching bag along with this journal May you find each beneficial whenever you’re struggling to work through your feelings And may you inflict significantly less violence on Jo There are far worse older sisters out there I promise you All my love Dad
