I fear I must ask for the assistance of some kind soul here.

I am unwell. It is the old illness and I know very well how to manage it, but is there someone willing to receive a short message from me, every few hours, as proof that I am conscious?

It will only be until evening. Perhaps tomorrow if I am not recovered.

Caspar,

Did you send a lot of letters back home, then? This is the first piece of mail I have received in many years!

Thats a pity. Are you sure the doctors here can't help? They seem to have cures for all sorts nowaday, although I admit I've been to feared to go myself.

I'm glad you are feeling a little better at least. I am well, I am getting more used to this new gift and soaking myself and my apartment a lot fewer than I was. Now I am mostly watching Pasión de Gavilanes.

Bruno,

Yes, I wrote letters all the time. Practically every day. It was the fastest means of communicating with someone you could not go to see in person. How did you go about it, did you have those phones?

My physician at home assured me there was no cure when I was a child, and frankly I do not care to drag it all up in front of some doctor here that I hardly know, especially a woman. It is an embarrassment enough that I had to ask for help like this.

It seems something of an unfortunate gift. Can you make the sun shine, too, or is it only the dark clouds that it brings?

Pasión de Gavilanes? Is he one of the rats?

Caspar,

That sounds like a pleasant way to pass the time. We didn't have these phones, we did send letters. I just hadn't communicated with anyone by any means in a long time.

I can understand that. If you are used to it, especially. You've nothing to be embarrassed about though, it gave us an opportunity to try this out.

The weather is affected by my moods, so if I was very happy it would be sunny, maybe even a rainbow if I was extremely pleased.

Pasión de Gavilanes is a telenovela, a Colombian television show. It is a very sort of overdramatic story of love and revenge. At the moment, this woman has discovered she is pregnant, but the father has unfortunately died in a horse riding accident, so she must go and ask for money from the father's family, but they have humiliated her. I do not know what she will do now, but I fear that it will not be a happy episode.

Bruno,

It could be very pleasant, although that depended on why you were writing, and to whom. We might write as often as you like, if you enjoy it.

I suppose that discovering you had such a capricious talent would be enough to put anyone in an ill mood, but I hope you are now able to bring some sun!

It is like a play? Perhaps a dramatic opera? I always liked those, and I miss them now. Where is it being performed? No, I cannot possibly go to see it now. Tell me what happens to the unfortunate woman, will you? I must know the ending.
