Thrilling Climax
Paul, the Naval officer married Sandra after
dating her for
almost 2 years. World War II had just started by then. A
few days after
their wedding he had to leave for the battlefront. While
on the front,
he got the shocking news that Sandra had met a terrible
accident and was
on deathbed. When he reached the hospital she gave him
an envelope and
said "Please read the enclosed letter only when you are
about to die"
and she passed away. Paul was devastated with the tragic
loss of his
beloved wife.
It was a few months when Paul came to terms with
her death and
recalled the letter Sandra gave him. Curiosity got the
better of him,
and he took the letter to Steve, a close friend and
colleague, asking
him to read it without disclosing its contents. That way
he will keep
his promise, Paul thought. Steve got red with anger as
he read the
letter and almost threw him out of his office. That made
Paul even more
curious and largely suspicious about the letter's
contents. He
approached many of his friends and colleagues but
whomever he asked to
read the letter got infuriated.
Paul was sure that his wife had written something
so offensive
that no one can stand. Perhaps it was about her
betraying the country or
a secret affair. Life seemed worthless to him and he
decided to end it,
but not without reading the letter.
The evening was freezing and miserable and the
overcast sky made
it look murkier. With a pounding heart, he took the
envelope to the
ship's deck. His hands were sweaty and trembling as Paul
opened the
letter and lit the torch. As he was about to read it, a
strong wind blew
and the letter fell into the sea.
