“Theo, I have now received your card. I’m so happy that I got it. You wrote that you do not forget me — and I don’t forget you either. You said so yourself. Now Theo, we both know how things are, and that you’re coming on Monday — you don’t need to ask whether that’s alright. I always think it’s alright. But Theo, now you must do me a favour. You must send me another message telling me what time you expect to be in Dordrecht. Then of course I will come and fetch you. So please do that, Theo. Don’t forget it. Now Theo, no further news. Greetings from me, and a kiss. Goodbye."
