It was because she was the only person

She'd inherited the taste for sauerkraut from her grandfather who'd been lucky enough to escape from Germany before the future Allied Nations started turning Jews away. In fact, the old man's taste for sauerkraut was about all he tnanaged to bring with him.I raised my glass to her.Enjoy. . .' I liked to please her.

I got a kick out of making her happy. It also made me feel a whole lot better because, although we hadn't exchanged contracts, I felt I was cheating on her when I went with someone else. I suppose it was because she was the only person with whom I had come the nearest to being the real me'. And each time I concealed something, or told her less than the truth, I diminished our relationship.
