PROMPT: Come home
Prison letters from Chibs before and after Opie.
My darling,
I know I’m shite at writing as often as I should, lass, and I’m sorry for that, but this bloody hellhole keeps us on our toes. We’re all safe and we’ve got each other’s backs though, so don’t you be worrying your wee head.
I miss you every second of every day. Ask Tiggy – he complains I’m never done talking about you. I reckon he’s just jealous. And so he should be. I still have no idea what I did to deserve such a beautiful old lady to come home to.
I’m glad you’ve got Tara and Lyla for support. Stay strong for me, look after yourself.
PS: If I have to dig my way out of here with a fucking spoon, I’ll be there to hold your hand when our wee one’s ready to make an appearance. I wouldn’t miss it for the world, pet.
All my love, Filip xx

My wee love,
I’d give anything to be able to hold you right now, darling. I know you’ll have heard about Op, I know you’ll be scared and grieving like the rest of us.
I can’t get my own head round this.
I know you and Tara will do what you can for Lyla and those poor kiddies. Breaks my fucking heart thinking of them.
Please don’t be scared, baby. I’m coming home, I promise.
All my love, always, Filip xx
