But there was something he almost never talked about.
I was alone.
My husband had died years ago
He had been the only man in my life who looked at me like I was the most beautiful woman in the world.
After his death, my house was still full of expensive things, beautiful flowers, letters and gifts...
But there was no longer a voice that said:
“I need you.”
And believe me, sometimes a woman doesn’t need diamonds, applause, or thousands of likes.
Sometimes you just need a sincere phrase.
One day, as usual, I opened the messages on my page.
Hundreds of messages, one caught my attention.
It was from a young man.
His name was Daniel.
He wrote to me:
“I don’t know if you’ll believe me, but you’re one of those few women who haven’t taken anything from them by age. There is life in your eyes and warmth in your smile. I’ve been following you for a long time and I just wanted to tell you that you’re exceptional.”
