1 second remains

Dear Roberta Sparrow,

I've reached the end of your book, and there's so many things I need to ask you. Sometimes I'm afraid of what you might tell me.

Sometimes I'm afraid that you'll tell me that this is not a work of fiction.

I can only hope that the answers will come to me in my sleep. I hope that when the world comes to an end, I can breathe a sigh of relief...

Because there will be so much to look forward to.

Yours truly,

Donnie Darko
