Aside from the intensity of the past the story is also intriguing in the the ambiguity of the relationship. The characters are never named and I'm not even sure if the gender of the writer was ever revealed, though for some reason I assumed it was a woman. What is certain is the writer is completely attached to the "You" addressed in the letter, though they rarely talked since their first night together and it's doubtful that they've been lovers since that night either.
