She followed the light downstairs.  The light shone directly on his leather briefcase which was standing upright but was slightly ajar.  She put her hand into the opening and pulled out a thick envelop.  The contents of the envelope were what the Apparition wanted to show her!

 The envelope contained a thick letter from a woman signed J… It also contained a photograph of him and a woman whom she recognized as a Dr. J who was working with him in the same location up north.  She had met this woman Dr J when she visited him at his work station several months before. 

The letter was long.  In the letter Dr. J confessed her love for him.  The letter at the same time reminded him that he was the one who wanted to write the 10-page letter to his wife.  The letter stressed that writing the letter was not her idea and that she should not be blamed if his marriage falls apart as a consequence of the 10 page letter he sent to his wife.  

 She was reading Dr. J’s letter sitting on a dining chair.  The light was not on but she could read clearly.  She was terribly confused.  His 10-page letter to her had asked for her forgiveness for his old affair with his former lover, N, and written purportedly to ask for her forgiveness over the affair.  His 10-page letter had not mentioned anything about this current love affair with Dr. J.

Being the straight forward woman she was, it took her sometime to take it all in.   After several hours, it finally dawned on her!  He had written the 10 page letter confessing to his past love affair with N, just to provoke her to agree to a divorce, not to ask for her forgiveness!   How gullible she was!  That was why he had insisted on a divorce even after she said she had forgiven him! 

Let's wait and see how A story (Part 5) goes...when I get the inspiration again…
