[Outside Myka's door is a box. Inside it, she will find these bookends, this (book not included), these cute things, and this mug. Also included is a note written by Helena, though she used her elegant cursive writing instead of her neat manuscript writing. The note reads:

"How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of being and ideal grace.
I love thee to the level of every day's
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for right.
I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.

- Sonnet 43 by Elizabeth Barret Browning"]
