Dearest Jillian,
You're a funny girl. Anyway, you're welcome for "taking care
of Jacqueline." My friend Law(rence) is a pretty good influence
on me, as you guessed. I've been having a good summer. The best
of my life, actually, and I have Jacqueline to thank for some of
that. Lawrence to thank for the rest. Of course, your approval
should mean very little to me, but I wanted to write you back and
say thanks anyway. I hope the rest of your years at Rawley Academy
are spent better than mine were.
