At Saint Grace Nunnery, outside Hasen City, Eliza read prayer scriptures when Sister Sarah rushed in. “Serenity, you’ve got a letter!”

“A letter? Who’s it from?” Eliza asked curiously as she took the envelope.

“I don’t know. The envelope only has your surname on it. Since it’s for you, you must know who it’s from,” Sarah replied with a shrug.

‘My surname?‘

Eliza’s heart skipped a beat. Among the people she knew with the surname Stonor, there were only two possibilities: Lawrence or her dearest friend. ‘Could it be a letter from her?‘

The thought of someone she hadn’t seen in ages made Eliza excited. She quickly sat down and opened the letter. As she pulled out the letter, a faint floral scent wafted out from the envelope.

Unfolding the letter, Eliza found a paper and a delicate pressed flower bookmark tucked inside. Seeing the pressed flower bookmark, a warm smile spread across her face.

Noticing her expression, Sarah couldn’t help but ask, “Who’s it from? You haven’t read it yet, but you’re already smiling so. much!”

Eliza gently held the pressed flower bookmark between her fingers, her smile deepening. “It’s from an old friend of mine, Diana Baker. We exchanged letters before I became a nun, and we’d always include a pressed flower bookmark. It was our little secret code.”

“Ah, I see. No wonder the letter smells so nice even before it’s opened,” Sarah said with a chuckle.

Eliza handed the pressed flower bookmark to Sarah as a token of thanks for delivering the letter.

After Sarah left, Eliza carefully held the letter in her hands, her heart heavy with anticipation as she began to read. It had been so many years since she last saw Diana, not since their heartbreaking separation in the past.
