Letter to Billy

Dear Billy,

I understand that you want the best for us, especially for your daughter, but you can't keep on like this. The extra money is nice, but the way you earn it hurts the both of us. When you come home bruised and bleeding it tears me apart. I can't stand to see you like that. I love you. Please stop fighting. The way we live now isn't so bad. Your daughter will love you no matter what happens and no matter the way we live. I'm asking for your saftey and for the sake of our daughter, please give up fighting for good.

Love always,
Johnnie Mae
