Letters to God From Sulky Lovers

From: Mr. Edward Lee, London ( A sulky lover with a complaint )

To: God, Heaven

Special regards to Mrs. Andrea Lee ( Wife of Mr. Edward Lee )

Dearest God,

How could you be so cruel towards me? You knew, right? That I had planned to go out with my beloved Andrea to foreign countries for our honeymoon, but…why did you bring about corona all of a sudden?

 We had planned to go to France, where we would take pictures standing on the Eiffel Tower, we planned to go to Italy to take radiant pictures in the Colosseum, and we planned to go to India to take pictures in front of the Taj Mahal, we planned to go to the Himalayas, to the Aphrodite’s rock to worship the goddess of love, to the amazon forests where we’ll be heated up like boiling water and then to the continent of Antarctica and, also to the Great Wall of China where my newly wedded wife’s smile will be greater than the wall, visible across the world, across the universe, and aliens would get jealous of her big bright smile with two missing teeth on the front.

 My wife prayed that you shall give her the best of the journey, keep her well, that she'll be able to protect herself and me, and etc. But did you hear her call to keep out dangers before the honeymoon, when you let such an undesirable virus free in this human world?

 We sewed so many lovely thoughts but you took a scissor and cut them all in a second…

 And my wife is so frustrated about it that the next second after you banned all the flights, she broke 28 plates, 12 saucers and 8 glasses total worth $45,000. You don’t even give me a good job and on top of that, you create such confusion that my head stops working - what a waste of life!

 Though I’m complaining to you all day, I know, however, that my wife was angry for a reason. She had already told her friends, enemies, near and dear ones that she will be going to foreign countries. She had even asked them what she would bring for them. They asked for many things and I think, as an economical clerk, I might have not been able to provide all their wants. So if you had done it to save me from embarrassment, then forget the rest of the letter.

 It has been 4 months since my wife has stopped talking to me bearing on the fact that I cannot complete her one wish but was it actually MY fault? Every time I try to make her happy, she gets even more furious on me. When I try to make her burden of work light, she lectures and scolds me like hell. I don't understand...

 I want justice from you, my Lord.

 You hurt me on purpose, didn’t you? I’m very angry with you unless your purpose of breaking our relationship was that Andrea is not suitable to be my wife…so is it that you broke the relationship beforehand so that later you don't need to see me crying while signing the divorce paper?

  ...

If that’s the case, then please reply to my question about whom do you think I should marry if it’s not Andrea.

However, my Lord, you should have given me some more beauty to get a prettier girl as my bride.

 Hope you'll give some importance to this letter. With respects,

Your foolish clerk son,

     Edward.
