Envelope

Pride had been standing in his way for too long. Spencer grabbed a pen and began to draft a letter to his father. When he left for L.A., he had received encouragement and nothing else.

Spencer detailed the terms for a proposed loan, enough to get him through these difficult months. Finishing it, folding it, fitting it into an envelope, he stared at the blank space, forgetting the address to put on the front.
