Dear Mr. James Smith

This will be my last letter. I am here in Paris but I'm not here to take care of our business. I leaved England to forget my sadness. I broke up with the man I loved the most because of my illness maybe that's why I feel guilty now. I am stuck im the middle being as your guardian and the love I feel for you. I need to rest for a while and enjoy my maybe last moments here in Paris. My illness is getting worse. If it is already spring season and I'm still alive, I might catch up with you there in London. I want you to know that... I love you.
