Hello old friend.
By the time you read these
words, Rory and I will be long gone, so know that we lived well, and we’re very
happy, and above all else, know that we will love you. Always.
Sometimes I do worry about
you, though. I think, once we’re gone, you won’t be coming back here for a
while and you might be alone, which you should never be.
Don’t be alone, Doctor.
And do one more thing for me.
There’s a little girl waiting in a garden. She’s going to wait a long while, so
she’s going to need a lot of hope.
Go to her. Tell her a story.
Tell her that if she’s
patient, the days are coming that she’ll never forget. Tell her she’ll go to
sea and fight pirates, she’ll fall in love with a man who’ll wait two thousand
years to keep her safe. tell her she’ll give hope to the greatest painter who
ever lived, and save a whale in outer space.
Tell her, this is the story of
Amelia Pond, and this is how it ends.
