Chill, Kolya. No harm, no foul.

I looked at those marbles for a long time.

If nazis happened today, we'd learn in 50 years that @annefrank spent a lot of time playing Candy Crush Saga.
If nazis happened today, they would have been able to use App metadata, geotagging, facial recognition software, electricity consumption monitoring, eavesdropping on financial statements, and other tools like that to locate Anne Frank and every other jew in Germany within a few weeks of them implementing the final solution...and probably not a single jew would have survived.
But ya know.....the Jews had nothing to hide so they had nothing to worry about right?

that sounds like a really wild concept for a novel.

What about the cat?
Ask Schrodinger.
In all seriousness we all have a cat in a box somewhere. I spent a lovely evening reading old letters from girlfriends and my parents and friends I found in the attic from 30 years past. Granted it's easier to do when you are alive. Having your marbles helps too. No nazis as well.

I burned garbage bags full of letters and pictures after I married but some few were mixed with old artwork, other letters, even pages of equations I no longer understand. No naked pictures dammit. Those went right off. But to see a time capsule of who you were is oddly sentimental. It's like meeting an estranged friend. But the main thing I realize is always the same, I am the luckiest person alive to have known the people I did. I may rebuy the books or trinkets of youth on ebay as a touchstone to those days but what I miss aren't the things or the times.
These days are good too. Evil bastard that I am I regret nothing. What might Anne have kept, lost, or dicarded? How might she have lived? What might her grandkids say of her at the eulogy? Lost because of assholes. She was a thinker and a sensitive soul. She would have been good to know, interesting in her eye for detail and expression of feeling. I treasure most who I was at her age on the cusp of adolescence but to be stuck there forever? To never see the world as an adult? What a loss for her to be yellowed pages, however great, instead of the fullness of a life lived.
Damn you Hitler kitty, you smug bastard.

Did you marry very young? It seems so weird to try to hide that you had a life before your wife. But maybe that's because I married late, where this is hard to hide anyway. I still have all that stuff. I've gone though old photos with ex-girlfriends in them with my wife and I've seen some of hers. Apart from that I trust her not to dig through my private stuff. That would be a quite a breach.

Clearly you should post that here. All of that.
