My dearest Billy, What great joy it was for me to have received your letter, a letter that I had been impatiently waiting for. I am so sad to know that you are so far from me, but your letter is so nice that it has given me courage and the hope of seeing you again one day. Dear Billy, I miss you so much. Since you left, I haven’t gone dancing. My thoughts are with you all day, particularly while looking at the stars that you had so kindly named after me. Bob has left and Christiane is sad. Unfortunately, we are not the only ones. I spend my afternoons on the Walkway of the English with my mother, there is a marvelous sun, and we often speak about you. As soon as I have a photo of myself as a dancer, I will get it to you, maybe in my next letter. I hope that you don’t forget about me too quickly and I hope to see you again before you return to your dear family. Mother sends you her best wishes, she sorely misses you since she liked you a lot. I leave you by sending you my whole heart, my love, and a thousand kisses.
