It was on those afternoons that they dreamed of their future together. The purple house would have a big study room where Teddy could work at his desk but still be able to look out of the grand windows into the garden to watch Mimi and the kids. In the garden, their little boy and girl and would be playing hide and seek, the dog running around with them, their laughter still so innocent, while Mimi lies on a blanket on the grass, reading her book of poetry.
But Teddy left. Before they could build a purple house together. Before they could even start a life together. His ambitions were much bigger than what their life could promise. Even Mimi's gentle touch and sweet kiss could not hold him back. Mimi spend endless months searching for an answer, thinking that if only she could find a purple house, Teddy would return and they could be happy together. But Teddy never came back.
Mimi never had the chance to return to the apartment. Only from there could they see the purple house. Sometimes when thinking of Teddy, Mimi often imagined their purple house. To her, it was an image of happiness, of a happy ending that she never had. She often wondered "Did the purple house that she and Teddy saw ever exist, or was it just an illusion?"
