Now I knew it was a lie, too.
She was trying to distance herself from me.
А я каждый раз сама возвращала её в свою жизнь.
В конце письма Майкл рассказал самое страшное.
После того как ему поставили диагноз «рак», он заставил Сьюзен пообещать, что после его смерти она наконец расскажет мне всю правду.
I didn’t know anything about it.
In the last weeks of his life, Michael often stayed with Susan alone.
I thought he was asking her to take care of me when he was gone.
Now it turned out that he asked her to stop hiding the truth from me.
Я ещё держала письмо в руках, когда в дверь постучали.
Я сразу поняла, кто это.
Susan was on the doorstep.
She’s not gone anywhere.
Всё это время она сидела в кафе напротив отеля.
When I opened the door, she didn’t even try to smile.
- Did you read?
I didn’t want to scream.
I didn’t want to hit her.
And for some reason, it scared me even more.
I just asked:
“How many times have you sat at my desk, looked me straight in the eye and remembered what was with my husband?”
Susan’s pale.
— Каждый раз.
When did Michael die and I was crying in your arms?
Her eyes were filled with tears.
