KUALA LUMPUR, March 24 — Eight days after Malaysia Airlines (MAS) flight MH370 disappeared, Sarah Bajc posted a letter to her boyfriend, Philip Wood, on Facebook, pleading with him to come home so that they could continue their unfinished Words with Friends game.

Bajc’s love letter to the 51-year-old American businessman, who was on Flight MH370 to see her in Beijing, China, is one of the many online missives she has penned to him since the jetliner carrying 239 vanished on March 8. 

“Dearest Love ... This is the second Saturday of your disappearance. I cannot remember much of the first, but I have spent today remembering you,” Bajc wrote on her Facebook page last Saturday.

In that post, she quoted a love poem by e. e. cummings titled “I carry your heart with me”.

The Wall Street Journal reported on March 13 that 48-year-old Bajc, who is Wood’s long-term partner, had texted him a reminder to get on the plane after he had confused the flight dates.

Wood, who was working as a technical storage executive in Kuala Lumpur, and Bajc — who is currently working as a schoolteacher in Beijing — were planning to start a new life together in Malaysia.

The couple’s plan was for Wood to travel back and forth from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing for the first six months this year, until Bajc could move to Kuala Lumpur where she had also found employment.

Bajc wrote on Facebook that she was so busy packing up the apartment on Friday night — just hours before the jet fell off civilian radar in the early hours of March 8 — that she did not have time to respond to his turn on Words with Friends, a mobile word game similar to Scrabble.

“Perhaps it was just because you are beating me and I have crappy letters. Well, this morning I had a notice that it had been 9 days, and that you would automatically win unless I played. Can’t have that!” wrote the American woman from Atlanta.

Bajc’s love letters on Facebook were full of hope, uploaded with pictures of the couple doing things like watching the sunset together.

“Can you feel my love coming through to you? It is bottomless, so it should be able to reach, no matter where you are,” she wrote last Friday.

The disappearance of Flight MH370 is the longest in modern commercial aviation, frustrating a massive international search undertaken by 26 nations in an area that is slightly bigger than the entire land mass of Australia.

The Boeing 777-200ER has yet to be found 16 days after it disappeared, despite several satellite images recently released by Australia, China and France showing possible debris from the plane.
