Dodge City, Kansas
Circa 1876
Sunshine MacGillicutty and her boyfriend, U.S.Marshal Matt Dillon, were on their way to the post office. Sunshine needed to pick up a package. On their way out, the clerk yelled:"Oh, Miss Sunshine. I have something else for you." He handed her a letter. Sunshine stuck it in her purse, as she and Matt headed to Delmonicos for lunch.
After they ordered....."Aren't you going to open it, sweetie?"
Sunshine:" Oh, it's probably just a letter from that mail order company....Paperwork regarding that new plow.....Okay,okay, I'll open it."
It was from her former boyfriend, Kevin Dunbar.
Dear Sunshine,
(1) I've Dreamed Of Loving You For Many Years. Even during my marriage, my thoughts turned to you. Ever since my wife's death, I can't stop thinking of you. I know my two trips to Dodge were disasters but I have NOT given up. I think of you daily....and nightly. Your (2) Beautiful Eyes, Beautiful Face and loving heart are always on my mind.
(4) I Write To Let You Know I Think Of You often.......and with a devotion I did not imagine I possessed. I am enclosing a photograph I had taken recently.

Yes, I shaved my whiskers......As I recall, you always said they tickled you, whenever we kissed.
Yours,
Kevin
As Sunshine was putting it back in her purse, the photograph fell out. Matt picked it up and froze.
Matt:" So. A letter from Dunbar. Were you going to tell me about it?" (If looks could ACTUALLY penetrate!)
Sunshine:" Yes, of course. Later on , after lunch."
Matt looked incredulous....."You don't think I can EAT, do you?!"
Sunshine:"What?!"
Matt:" You eat. I've lost my appetite." He got up and walked out. Sunshine ran after him.
Sunshine:"Matt?!" She caught up to him. "Sweetie?! Slow down." Matt stopped and turned around.
Matt:"How do you think that makes me feel? How would you like it if the shoe was on the other foot?!"
Sunshine:"ExCUSE ME?! I put up with Miss Kitty and her romantic advances toward you, ALL THE TIME !!"
Matt:"That doesn't count and you know it!"
Sunshine:" First of all you sound like a teenager. Second of all, it sure DOES count!" She attempted to lighten the mood......"Awww, baby, you know (5) I Have A Monster Crush On You." She tried to kiss him.
Matt:"MONSTER............. CRUSH ?! Is THAT what you just said ?!" As you look at this photo, concentrate on Matt's face, forget the kid in the picture.)

He stormed off.
Sunshine yelled after him......"Although right now (3) I Don't Know Why My Feelings Are So Strong?!!!!
Matt Dillon..............
Get your *** back here !!"
Matt went over to his office and slammed the door. Sunshine got on her horse and sped away
That night he didn't show up for dinner. Sunshine carefully put all the food away, grabbed an apple, and walked down to the lake.
The evening was hot, so she waded in the water. The coolness seemed to soothe her frazzled nerves.

From behind her, came a voice. She turned and saw Matt standing on the shore.
Matt:" I love you so much, SunnyMac. I love you so much." He waded out to where she was. Matt took her hand and pressed it to his chest.......(6) Be Gentle: What You're Holding Is My Heart."

As written from a mans point of view:
My dearest Linda,
I write to let you know I think of you and I've dreamed of loving you for many years. I have a monster crush on you! Your beautiful eyes, beautiful face, I don't know why my feelings are so strong.
Please, be gentle. What you are holding is more than just a letter. What you're holding is my heart.

It was love at first sight, for both of them. The restaurant was crowded and each of them were seated alone at separate tables. He looked her way and she look his way and when they made eye contact, it was as if they had known each other for ever. He had not given his order to a waiter, so he got up and walked to her table. "This place is so crowded, he said, why don't I sit with you and someone else can have my table." She agreed it was a good idea.
He did not waste time, He said, I've dreamed of loving you for many years, you have beautiful eyes, beautiful face. I don't know why my feelings are so strong, If I was away from you I would have to write to let you know I think of you, all the time. It is evident that I have a monster crush on you. All I ask, that you be gentle, what you re holding is my heart.
She leaned over and whispered in his ear, "why don't we go to my place and give this crowd another table."

I was at the grocery store the other day when I spotted her in the produce section, looking at watermelons. Then, she happened to look my way... Beautiful eyes, beautiful face... I knew then, without a doubt that she was the same girl who'd walked out of my life years ago. So, I walked over to her & said, "Patti?" "Carl", she asked, "is that you?" "None other!", I answered, "Can we get together for coffee this afternoon?" "I'd love to! My treat", she said. So, that afternoon over coffee, we talked about what each of us had been doing all those years. Then, her expression turned serious & she pulled someting out of her purse. She held out the heart-shaped locket I gave her for her birthday one year. I told her, "Be gentle: What you're holding is my heart. I don't know why I just said that. I don't know why my feelings are so strong". Then she pulled out a folded piece of paper & also handed it to me. "I'm sorry", she said & left hurriedly. "Patti, wait!", I called after her. But it was too late. I read her note:
"My Dear Carl:
I write to let you know what I think of you. I have a monster crush on you, even after all this time. I've dreamed of loving you for many years. But it would never work. We live in such different worlds. Besides, I'm dating this really rich guy who's promised to take me on a trip around the world. So, goobye & good luck.
Love, Patti."
I couldn't believe what I'd just read. She acted as if there was never anything between us at all. And to make matters worse, she stiffed me for the bill. So, I called the waiter over & asked, "Do you have something stronger than coffee?"

I write to let you know i think of you, for everyday that you are gone i shall re-live a memory we shared that made us happy.
starting with the first day i met you, you actually kissed my feet,if you can remember that far. it was at starbucks and the floor was wet so you accidentally fell and bumped your mouth on my boots.. that was funny. our first date, he showed up an hour late, i was furious, but you came with a box of snicker bars, and a good excuse. you won my heart that day.all these momments are what keeps me going.. till i see your face again.
