La septième fois que j'ai eu un rendez-vous avec Frédéric pour obtenir un acte de mariage et qu'il ne s'est pas présenté, j'ai volontairement coupé tout contact avec lui. Je ne suis allée à aucune réunion de mes amis lorsqu'il était là. Lorsqu'il a été invité à se présenter lors d'une fête d'université, je suis partie plus tôt. Lorsque mon entreprise a choisi de travailler avec lui, j'ai immédiatement démissionné. Même le jour de Noël, lorsqu'il est venu chez moi, je suis sortie sous prétexte de rendre visite à des amis. Je l'ai bloqué de mon téléphone et de mes comptes sociaux afin de rompre définitivement avec lui. Je ne le contactais pas et il ne me voyait pas.

Même si j'étais seule, c'était mieux que d'attendre désespérément jour et nuit dans une maison vide !

"Mom, Dad, I’ve decided to come home for the blind dates you mentioned. I’ll be back by the end of the month." In the early spring, with the lingering chill of winter in the air, Valerie Stonecutter pushed open the door while speaking softly into the phone. Her gentle voice drifted through the rain like a thread weaving through the mist. Pulling her collar tighter against the cold, she heard her parents breathe a sigh of relief on the other end.
