«My sweet one, I had a conversation with Maria regarding your coming. We both decided that it could be as we had planned, despite the fact that the little girl is very sick and the doctor came to the house to see her. But, changes can be done and you can move too, if necessary. I say that no one can assume that you visit her during the day, especially having Maria on our side; I say we should take advantage of the situation while… However, it seems better that you bring a cloak so that, if the boy isn’t downstairs, you can come up. Goodbye, my soul, my life. See you at night. I am and always by your faithful, V.»
