When I got home, I opened the book I had found on the street and a home-made card fluttered to the floor. I’d clearly stumbled across an intimate love note, a card that signalled two people moving in together, with all their hopes and dreams. And yet I could tell the writer of the card understood their lover’s slight ambivalence about moving in. Perhaps it had been pinned on the wall of the new home, heralding the start of a happy, joined-up life together. I put the card back in the book and left it unread on my shelf.
