When I was fourteen, I met Nil, a classmate, soon after we fell in love. Nil is and will forever be a special someone for me. During our teenage years, he always wrote me letters. On April 17th, he gifted me a pendant with his initial and a note where it said: «Love is not finding someone to live with, but someone without whom you cannot live. Do you want to be my lover? Love, Nil». From that moment on, we didn’t separate each other, and since then I have been wearing the pendant. After fifteen years together, Nil was diagnosed with an illness and unfortunately it was too late to save him. After his passing, I have started writing every night before going to bed all that happened during the day. And always I end it saying: «Forever yours and no one other than you. Love, Èrica».
