Ten Years of Dreamlike Separation

In the tenth year since I fell in love with Mylo Francis, his fiancée read aloud the love letter I had written to him at the engagement party.

My secrets were exposed suddenly, and I was at a loss as if I had been stripped naked.

The guests present mocked me in every way, blaming me for liking my uncle.

Mylo's face darkened, and he then tore up my love letter in public.

Looking me up and down, he sneered, "Monica Gerta, do you think you are worthy of liking me?"
