Окончание рассказа о Стелле. Начало смотрите в главе 53.
If somebody could only tell Stella that she would never appear at the English land anymore, never go up to the first floor of their cozy house, never be in Walter’s passionate bedroom embraces… Knowing it for sure would make her plunge into the water and swim to the shore, where inconsolable Walter had not already been running, just staying petrified of his deep sorrow.
Stella’s mum actually had been seriously ill and died three months later after her daughter’s coming. Only then Stella recognized she did not need anybody as much as her husband. Hurry up, right back to him! But all her innumerable requests to accept her husband an entrance to England were vain. Soviet Embassy only sent her extensive answers which looked like reports about the international situation. Their contents were a little different, but the meanings were similar. Reading one more refuse for her requests of leaving Russia, Stella cried: “I don’t care about your Suez Canal, your bad international situation and your breaking of diplomatic relations with another western state. I am not a diplomat at all. I am just an ordinary woman, ardently wanting to live. I love my husband so much that my grief does not leave me alone. How do you think my daughter feels growing up here with no father close?”
Which of us could stay strong waking up alone every morning, without our darlings, having only a weak hope for the meeting, when the thread which connects you becomes thinner every year and ready to be torn off every single moment? Is there anybody who can say: “Yes, I’ll do it, I can live through it all,” while being told that these moments of pure happiness are going to be extremely short comparing to the next period of total loneliness? Actually, this last phase will fully consist of endless waiting for an envelope. The thing is that this envelope can be getting to Russia for ages. Moreover, there won’t be any new letters after that at all.
After the Soviet Embassy had firmly refused to allow Stella the escape from Russia, Walter created a new family and moved to Australia. But there still were about a thousand letters from him that were kept by Stella. All these letters had been written by Walter during the first eleven years after woman’s departure. Can Russian men wait for the meeting with his darling for a really long amount of time?
Stella had been reading all these letters again and again for years. Some words are difficult to see now – they were washed out by tears. But the woman remembers every line single perfectly. While facing them all for the first time she had not know yet that there was only irresistible empty loneliness ahead. Stella heartily believed, never even doubted that her great love would break the walls of the obstacles created against the weak woman by her motherland.
But on the motherland nobody cared about that small, pretty and young woman, the only wish of whom was just to love and to be loved. Long weeks of waiting turned into months, the months turned into years. Only the letters, full of tenderness, gave Stella and Walter forces to live far away from each other. These letters had always been with her. She always had the endless love of her beloved man.
