ABSTRACT
Marianne: If only you were. We’d make a fresh start in every way. We’d get rid
of all the routine and the slack habits. We’d talk over the past. We’d try to find
where we’ve gone wrong. You’d never hear any accusations. I promise you. It’s
all so unreal. I don’t know what to do about it. You’re shutting me out. Can’t you
promise to come back? Then I’d know something. I mean, you can’t just leave
me without any hope. It’s not fair. Even if you have no intention of returning, you
could at least say you’re coming home again.
