It has been some time now and I am to be married to Charles Darnay tomorrow. It seems like just yesterday I met him on the boat returning from France, and now we are starting a life together. I have always seen Charles as a wonderful man who is caring and loving towards me and my father. He helped me care for my fathers sickness on the boat, and I was able to return the favor as a witness in his trial where he was falsely accused of treason. I believe I have loved him since the day he kissed my hand with gratitude following his acquittal. I could not think of or imagine another man to be as wonderful as Charles has been. Charles respects my relationship with my father and they even have a relationship of their own that I admire greatly.
There is also another man who has become a good friend of mine. Sydney Carton, who helped free Charles from prison, has promised me he loves me and will do anything for me, even die. It seems dramatic but I know he means well and only wants what is best for me and knows that Charles and I were meant to be together.
My father has also gotten more accustomed to life outside of prison. Although he used to occasionally slip back into his state of shoe making and solidarity, I believe he has learned to deal with his new life much better. I am so thankful for the new life I have been given through my father and Charles. They are both such a blessing to me.
