- Dear Theodora, what to say to you?
- You have your mother's eyes and my name.
- You know me as your mother's former employer, but I was actually more than that.
- When she left me, I fall apart.
- My world back then was only my small estate and I thought it was enough.
- I was ready to die with the old world, in the estate I inherited from my ancestors.
- However your mother changed all that, and her departure pushed me to be a better man.
- I swore that
- I’ll do whatever it takes
- I’ll make a million mistakes
- To win your mother's heart back
- However, it is all just a dream now.
- She have passed away before I managed to do anything and I am not even man enough to admit to you that I am your father.
- However, the years we have spent since we reunited changed me again in a way that your mother couldn't.
- There is so much more inside me now
- Oh Theodora, when you smile I am undone
- Whenever we're together time turned slow
- Now, I swear that
- I’ll be around for you
- I’ll do whatever it takes
- I’m done with making mistakes
- I’ll make the world safe and sound for you
- As you come of age, I will be there for you
- I'll bleed and fight for you, together we'll make it right for you
- Theodora, will you forgive your foolish father and start over together?
- I will leave all of my businesses and go back to Glasgow with you.
- I have enough money for us to leave quietly for a lot of years.
- As a seat holder in the House of Lords, I also got quite the sum every year.
- Please Theodora, forgive your unmanly father.
- and someday we will live peacefully in our house in Glasgow
- someday we will plant all the flowers in our garden like you say
- and then someday the man destinied for you will come and praise your garden like in your favourite novel
- someday I will be a doting father, refusing to give you to the man who want to marry you
- and someday I will give up and you married that man
- and someday you'll come home every Christmas back to our home with your husband and children
- and someday
- I will die knowing that I did not let go of your hand
- With love,
- William Digby, your foolish father
