first this, from Whit:

Dear Fox,
You probably don't want to hear from me right now, but I wanted you to know how sorry I am for hurting you. The look of devastation on your face when you left... I always feared I would be faced with that exact look if the truth came out. I realize you had true feelings for me, and I feel awful for using that to my advantage. But I had to protect Miles. I know you think I'm selfish, but I really did all this so my son wouldn't grow up with the stigma of being a child of incest. Only now everything is falling apart. It's obvious you loved Miles with all your heart, so I'm hoping you'll understand how my love for him drove me to do the things I've done. Please, please accept my apology. I pray some day in the future we can be friends again, but of course that is entirely up to you.

Love,
Whitney

(and she really TRIES to be nice. don't even waste your good nature on him whit.)

I just got Whitney's email, but I still don't feel like talking to her right now. I guess we should break out the cigars for you, though, bro. In a way I guess it's a good thing you adopted Miles. If I had bonded with the little guy this whole time, the pain I'm feeling at the moment would've been that much greater. Looking back, now I know why Whitney was so miserable during her pregnancy. All this time I thought it was somehow my fault, like I wasn't doing enough for her... Silly me. Anyway, I'd still like to see Miles, if that's all right. I still love him like a son, not just a nephew. Btw, I ordered a book online about colic, so I'll give that to you sometime.

Later,
Fox
