Adam restlessly opened drawers and looked up at the shelves and raised the lids of boxes in his house and at last he was forced to call Lee back and ask, "Where is the ink and the pen?"

Adam asked, "How did you know I want to write a letter?"
"You're going to try to write a letter to your brother, aren't you?"
"That's right."
"It will be a hard thing to do after so long", said Lee.
