Berhane,
I was going to immediately begin this letter by writing to you in Swahili for practice—but then I remembered that I can’t even write in Swahili, so that plan fell through before it even began. Oh well, we’ll have plenty of time for all of that. I have to give you time to pretend you’ve been practicing, since I certainly have been speaking in Swahili for the past couple months. Speaking of which, I should not have to go back to Kenya until the beginning of July, so please try to act sufficiently excited about that for my own selfish benefit.
How were your exams, so that I can say that I got my one responsible question out of the way? I’m sure you scraped by at the very least, and the world does need more ice cream scoopers, after all. Before you make that face, you know I’m kidding. I’m glad you got a job, it’ll probably do you some good, and I’m not just saying that because you happened to get a job that has ice cream involved and you know how much I love ice cream. Not that I would ever condone you giving your aunt free ice cream. Out loud, at least.
All right, on to the purpose of this letter… not that I didn’t just want to say hello, obviously. I wanted to tell you to expect a bit of a crowd picking you up, I believe, so warn that boyfriend of yours accordingly so that he can brave the masses or slip past undetected. I promise to not judge him for whatever option he chooses.
See you in less than forty-eight hours, beautiful!
