| Letter 3- A.J.'s Letter |
| AJ help a pen in his hand & looked down at the paper on his desk. All he had gotten out was Dear Dad. He had so much to say he just didn’t know how to put it into a letter. He wrote down the things he wanted to say & then wrote: Dear Dad, I wanted to write you to tell you some of the things that are on my mind. You know I want to start having a relationship as father and son, but the idea scares me because you were never there to raise me. It makes me feel like you walked out on me & now you’re coming back because I’m famous. That’s not what I want. What I want is my Dad. Please don’t be angry about this. I hope that we can talk about this when I come home from tour. Dad, I’m also concerned that your new wife & stepdaughter mean more to you than I do. I know you think it’s silly, but it really matters to me. All I want from them is their love & acceptance for the person I am, not the Backstreet Boy. I know you think I’m nuts, but just getting the nerve to write this to you took a lot of persuasion on my part. I miss you dad. A.J. Satisfied with the letter he had written, he put it in an envelope for safekeeping. Then he went to get Howie for a night of clubbing & parting, hoping he did the right thing. |
