Jojo Fakes a Breakup Letter, Explained：turn your back on someone
Elsa tells Jojo about Nathan, the fiancé she believes is coming to rescue her, and how he proposed.

"If she had a heart, this would break it clean in two," he says before reading it anyway.

What's really going on
The scene lets the two children try to wound each other with words, and shows how badly Jojo needs to win. Elsa's story of Nathan is a private, tender thing, complete with a proposal by the river and a line from Rilke about letting each other go. Jojo cannot produce anything to match it, so he invents the opposite: a farewell letter that strips her dream down to abandonment. The cruelty is deliberate, and he knows it — "If she had a heart, this would break it clean in two" — which is exactly why he reads it aloud. What he does not see yet is that Elsa's tenderness is the stronger position, and his invention only reveals how empty his own world has become.

このシーンについての質問
Why does Jojo invent a letter from Nathan?
Because Elsa's story of love and reunion leaves him with nothing to say. Unable to compete, he turns cruel and forges a breakup letter, knowing it will hurt her more than anything he could argue.
Who is Nathan?
Nathan is Elsa's fiancé, or so she believes. She says he is fighting with the resistance and will come to rescue her, and his memory is tied to poetry, the river and her hope for Paris.
What does the forged letter say?
It claims Nathan has found another woman, is no longer in the resistance, and is unemployed and fat, and it ends with goodbye and an apology for letting her go, plus a borrowed line from Rilke.
Why does Elsa keep Nathan's memory so carefully?
Because it is what keeps her going while she is hidden and hunted. The proposal, the poetry and the plan to escape to Paris are not just memories; they are the future she is holding on to.
