ThE LoVe LeTtEr

0nce there was a b0y wh0 l0ved a girl very much. The girl's father, h0wever, did n0t like the b0y and did n0t want their l0ve t0 gr0w. The b0y wanted the girl's father w0uld read it first. At last he wr0te this letter t0 the girl. . .

The great l0ve I said I have f0r y0u
is g0ne, and I find my dislike f0r y0u
increases everyday. When I see y0u,
I d0 n0t even like the way y0u l00k;
the 0ne thing I want t0 d0 is t0
l00k the 0ther way. I never wanted t0
marry y0u. 0ur last c0nversati0n
was very dull and in n0 way has
made me anxi0us t0 see y0u again.
Y0u think 0nly 0f y0urself.
If we were married, I kn0w that I w0uld find
life very difficult, and I w0uld have n0
pleasure in living with y0u. I have a heart
t0 give, but it is n0t a heart
I want t0 give t0 y0u. n0 0ne is m0re
demanding 0r selfish than y0u, and less
able t0 care f0r me and be 0f help t0 me. I sincerely want y0u t0 understand that
I speak the truth. Y0u will d0 me a fav0r
if y0u c0nsider this the end. D0 n0t try
t0 answer this. Y0ur letters are full 0f
things that d0 n0t interest me. Y0u have n0
true c0ncern f0r me. G00d bye! Believe me,
I d0 n0t care f0r y0u. Please d0 n0t think
I am still y0ur l0ving friend.

The girl's father read the letter. He was pleased,
and then gave the letter and was very happy. The b0y still l0ved her!
D0 y0u kn0w why she was pleased? She and the b0y had a secret way 0f writing t0 each 0ther. She read 0nly the first line 0f the letter, and then the third line, and then the fifth line, and s0 0n, t0 the end 0f the letter. . . .
