Letter 20
Francis to Arthur
In Paris
Marquise you do not follow the rules. Should I be informed of your progress by someone other than you? You angry my pleasure. I had to listen your prey boring enthusiasms for more than half an hour on the phone, it was he who told me your first kiss, without having your sarcastic version beforehand, how boring surprise it is. I waited your letter until Wednesday. I hate you. So like that you did not wait at all, it was in the bag for dessert? Small fry. I hope at least that the trophy will be at the height of the rapidity.
Deign please explain this attitude, divine Marquise. In the meantime try to calm your ardour in nightclubs, the whole Paris is aware. As William said, and I quote, "it did not stop him to bang three guys at the club right after dinner with Feliciano. ยป
