Why must you be so selfish? Don't you realize what you've been doing to not only me, but also this family? You've tied us up in this web of deception and I don't really know how you can stand yourself. It's very difficult for me to grasp how you aren't completely torn up with feelings of remorse. You claim you know and have done what's best for me, but really I see this as a bitter situation that I wish you had told me about earlier. Bringing my invention dreams to reality, that all seems so unrealistic now. I wanted you to be the inventor's prosperous widow, but it doesn't matter now because it's all over. I'd like to say I'm sorry for leaving you and Hedvig, but I just can't be around the family I thought I knew. I just can't stay around the house when Hedvig could not really be my child. I don't want to stay around with a child who reminds me of the man you had an affair with. Both with their increasing blindness- it just angers me so! I know you think I'll come back to you and Hedvig, but I can't guarantee anything. If you can't respect me enough to tell me the truth up front and reveal the truth about "our" child, how can I show you any respect in return?
