[But if he does decide to get it translated, the card will read something like this:

I apologize that the card is so stupid. I do not love you.

You were cruel the last time we spoke of this topic, but it is true. There is something deeply wrong with you. You are out of balance.

I am out of balance too. I will not push you, but I want to help, if I can. If you will allow me.

I wanted you to know that.


Scrawled at the bottom, almost as an afterthought:

I know you will not murder me because it would not be effective. I will still remember.

And squeezed into the bottom right corner, as though the sender hoped it would be illegible: We do not touch enough.


Some of the awkwardness can be attributed to translation, but it's pretty clear that whoever wrote this card isn't used to writing much of anything. The formal diction and ornate calligraphy are at odds with the crudeness of the handwriting -- lines drawn out of order and poorly shaped.


Three guesses who wrote it. Two of them don't count.]
