    She tried to recall what might have triggered Basil to write such a letter. She tried to remember what went wrong but was unable to. The last letter from him talked about how he was going to buy a fumed-oak bookcase for their books to keep and a natty little hall-stand. She remembered the last time she saw him and how handsome he had looked in his bright blue suit, with that dark rose. She even remembered the time when he confessed his love for her one dark night as they were returning from church. It had been a miracle for her. She was thirty and was finally getting married when this earth-shattering news came from Basil who wanted to call off their wedding.
