I wanted a love letter, but he
would not write one to me. One day, I saw the word « Sophie
» written at the top of a piece of stationery. This gave
me hope. Two months after our wedding, I noticed the edge of
a sheet of paper sticking out from under his typewriter. I pulled
it toward me. The last line of a letter appeared : « My
confession is last night, I kissed the envelope with your letter
and photo ». I continued to read, in reverse : »You
asked me once if I believed in love at first sight. Did I ever
answer you ? » At the top of the page I noticed these words
were not adressed to me but to a letter « H ». I
crossed out the « H » and replaced it with an «
S ». This became the letter I had never received.
