From I do not watch, I do not sneak around your house, I do not know where you live, it does not matter, I want to write and eventually maybe read from you a letter, three words a sentence. I present to you no questions, I do not know how old you are, what you do professionally, I'm looking for what you want to tell me. Nothing more, nothing less. And whoever I am, for you I'm the one you have in mind. Everything else comes with time "
One day, Louise, the message from a stranger in their inbox. It does not stop at this one mail, but more will follow. Their initial suspicion soon gives way to curiosity, and after long hesitation, she replied to one of the mails, but very cautious.

Her past was not exactly rosy, because the mother was mentally ill and the father then left the family.
