Subject: cool down my girl!

Dear angry darling,

I had always known that you are quick to feel angry when you feel betrayed or cheated. That is because you trust people. You are an adult, so you can understand whether I am simply praising you. I am not praising you, I have to say, you are really innocent in your heart, in spite of all the iron mask you put on to face the world. I have told you this, but you might have thought that those are just some sweet words. No, I really mean it.

I never had any suspicion about what you told me. Your letters were spontaneous, not as a result of deep planning. That can be understood from the flow of thoughts. You know, I have a habit of analyzing the actions and words of a person. I don't have any formal education in that, but I always do it with my own intuitions. Never have I felt anything about you is false. You remember the letter you wrote on Valentine's Day. And the message. Even though you didn't say anything explicitly, when I read the message, I felt that something was wrong. And I knew the reason also, even if not so precisely. Yes, when I told Sumit about your photos, he told me that those might be of some other woman. But I was sure and I am sure now too.

These are items when I desperately want to be with you. To melt down your anger and get the smile back on your face. It is good you gave vent to your feeling through the mail. You can think clearly again after sharing the feelings.

To suspect you in anything will be like suspecting my very own existence. Do you ever suspect that I suspect you? I never suspect that you suspect me. Hahahha, a play with suspects!

In the German class, now our teacher is showing us a film about a married couple. Both of them have another relationship. The film is very interesting. It is a normal film, we are watching it to learn vocabulary. Tomorrow the film will come to an end. I will tell you the story after that.

I can't imagine you being angry with me. We have agreed on how to go about if one of us is angry, but I hope we would never have to use those things, we must never be angry...

Yours 'truly'

Kamal
