Rest in peace, my dear friend.
One day, Anulya found me on a social network, and since then, we exchanged letters, messages, and eventually phone calls. Our last conversation was on Thanksgiving Day: I told her that I was sorry that fate had stolen so much time from us and that I was very happy and glad to have her in my life. She told me that she was also very happy and glad to have found me, and we both held onto the hope of seeing each other next year.
We made plans involving wine and ham, filled with humor, and I was amazed to see my cousin's incredible vitality, although I understood the enormous cost of maintaining such inner strength. Then came the message from Roman, her husband. And sadness filled the month of December.
I will continue to keep your number in my contact list. Sometimes, I go through your messages and photos. Talking about death doesn't make much sense; I prefer to talk about the hope that a person always leaves when they do something great. Your daughter and her husband know that it is the love of a wife and a mother that will always be with them—an unbreakable and eternal love.
Thank you, Anulya, for finding me and sharing your smile, your wisdom, your humor, and the feeling of forming a great family together on the road to reunion. I will never forget you. RIP.
