““Ophelia, I’m sure you’ve had plenty of time to consider my proposition by now. My children aren’t like me. They’re young and fragile, and they miss their mother. They need proper mentorship, as well as someone to call their friend. Neither Connor nor Amie have ever been to The Causeway. They know nothing of the world outside of New York and the home they shared here with their mother and me. If you would assist them (and me) during this huge transition stage, I would be eternally grateful. Yours, Ronan Fletcher””

A child is not a couch.” quote by Emily Rapp](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/1b1/emily-rapp-48724_belonging-to-someone_ronan-taught-me-that-children-do-not-exi_237043.jpg)
