He spends all day delivering other people's love confessions.
A morning in May 1936. Sunlight pours over the stone walls, and lilacs are in bloom in the garden.
A young postman named Thomas Bennett was standing in front of the entrance of a small house, holding two telegrams in one hand.
Above the brass letter slot at the bottom of the door, a note was attached with a phrase clearly written in neat handwriting: Broken, please knock.
Whether the repairman was late or not, that paper had been there for quite a while. Thanks to it, he could knock on her front door to his heart's content and hand the mail to her directly, a task that had been giving him joy for over a week now.
He has already adjusted his hat three times.
Miss, would you like to have a cup of tea? No, is that too rude? Miss, if you have time this Sunday afternoon, perhaps a cup of tea with me... It's too long.
