Why doesn't that Devil take me with him? It would be much better with him than it is here.

Why doesn't that Devil take me with him? It would be much better with him than it is here.

I sat with him for three hours and we did not exchange a single word. At the end he handed me, as he had done before, an envelope with money in it. It would have been much nicer if he had enclosed a greeting or a loving word. I would have been so pleased if he had.

There is only one thing I want. I would like to be seriously ill, and to hear nothing more about him for at least a week. Why doesn't something happen to me? Why do I have to go through all this? If only I had never set eyes on him!

I am racking my brains to find out why he left without saying goodby to me.

He has so often told me he is madly in love with me, but what does that mean when I haven't had a good word from him in three months?
