Cuando me dice “te amo”, pero Kafka le escribió a Milena:
"A veces me pregunto si existes de verdad. Porque te siento más adentro que afuera. Te has metido en mi sangre, en mis huesos, en mi manera de respirar. Cuando camino, te llevo. Cuando escribo, te escribo. Cuando callo, es porque hablo contigo dentro de mí. Si algún día dejas de escribirme, no sabré si te perdí a ti o si me perdí yo."
