Dear Constable Pierre Catchacrook,
They said she was able to utter a few words before she died. Of course I wouldn’t have known that, because I was off with the Mona Lisa the minute I heard the fire alarm sound. Some could call me insensitive or even thoughtless based on what I had decided that day. If it was humanly possible to carry both Mrs. Artlover and the incredibly famous Mona Lisa out of the Museum together, it would have been the first thing I did. This 509 year old, beautiful painting is a living legend to humanity. The emptiness that not only the museum would feel but the world would experience if the Mona Lisa was to be destroyed would be my responsibility. I would have to live with the guilt the whole world would burden me with everyday for the rest of my life. From the time I had to connect with Mrs. Artlover before the museum was engulfed with flames, made me believe, if Mrs. Artlove could speak to us now she would be grateful that her life was taken in return of saving the renowned Mona Lisa. Mrs. Artlover’s name will always live on with the famous painting, she would be proud to die in Leonardo Da Vinci’s name.
Sincerely,
Nicalette McCrae
