Dear Nicky's Diary,
I want to talk to you in person, I really do. However, I can't seem to find the words when I try to talk to you in person, so I'm hoping I can here. I'm writing this note, and having Johnny slip it into your journal, because I need you to understand how I feel. I understand having any contact with Johnny, even if it's just asking him to get this to you is wrong at this point, but I have no other choice. Your my daughter and I love you and never wanted to hurt you. I know your an adult now and you don't need my as much, but you're always going to be my little girl. Sometimes I can't believe how fast the last twenty years have gone by. Watching you grow up into a young women was an amazing experience and I just want you to be happy. I want you and Johnny to be happy and I want to be apart of your life.
Johnny really is a great guy and you two seem to make each other so happy. I was so glad when the two of you started dating. I knew that you had finally found a man. I say man because the first time I met him, I got the feeling he was going to take good care of you. He spoke to me with respect and seemed to absolutely adore you. He was unlike all of those immature little boys you had dated before. I could tell from the beginning that the two of you would be together and happy a long time. All of that makes what happened so much harder. I could tell you that what happened was all because of how much I missed your father, but honestly it wasn't. At this point I wont lie to you, I want you to know the complete truth.
What happened that night with your boyfriend was more about my own insecurity and making myself feel young again. I mean, I'm sure you can understand how much better it made me feel. To know even at my age, I could still turn on a young man with ease. To be able to even after all these years, manipulate and seduce a man, with little or no effort. Now I know, your boyfriend Johnny wasn't the best choice, but it sure felt like the right choice. I know it may seem sick to say, but to be able to turn on a man so devoted to such a beautiful woman, to be able to turn on a man so devoted to my beautiful daughter, was just the confidence boost I needed. Please remember before you get mad, at least I am being honest.
