Dear Hugo,
As 1 you probably 2 know by now, I came 3 to look for you in your old apartment 4 this afternoon, and found 5 that you didn’t live there any more.
If you think it’s as easy as that toget away from me, I can tell you that you’re very, very wrong. I’ve spent almost 7 a year in prison 8 already 9, thanks to you, while 10 you’ve been outside, living 11 your life 12 as usual 13.
I don’t expect 14 you’ve thought 15 about me very often, Hugo, but I’ve often thought about you, about paying 16 you back for what you did 6 to me.
The information 17 I’ve got 18 about you and Moran, and Mr.P is going 19 to be very expensive if you want me to keep quiet about it.
It’s a pity 20; I’d almost prefer 21 to see you in prison, but not if I’m going to have t go back there too.
For obvious 22 reasons 23 I’m not going to give you my address; I’ll be in touch with you very soon by phone. I hope 24 you don’t sleep a minute till 25 then.
Yours
Roger
