I unfolded the old letter of her again, reading the squiggly handwritting. She was helping me out of benevolence. It felt like this relationship was inexorable. She might've had a lot of dough, so it isn't surprising she had money to burn helping me like this. Or was it just a bypass for her to get her permission to run for the president in the center? Showing the proof of this kind of stuff is enough to upstage. I need to stop endless counterfactual thinking. Our relationship has reached to its endpoint, ran its course a long time ago. This makes me to introspect. Now it's my turn to help someone. I could replicate what she's done to me. I picked up a coffee table book in my salon.
