Take Note: The letter was written last year

Dear Precious,

I don’t know how to start sayin’ the things I wanna say in this letter. It seems that I’ve said too much in my previous letters to you that I already ran out of things to say…

I’m finally over you.

Very simple, right? But it wasn’t.

I’ve loved you since we were in Grade Six and I’ve always dreamed that it will be the two of us for the rest of my life… But, I woke up one day and realized that we’re just really friends and it’s better to keep it that way.

It was February 8 this year. I was with two of my friends and a guy who happened to be one of my friends’ cousin. We were biking that time and I was really emotional coz it was the same date when we watched “Titanic” six years ago.

I drove the bike so fast and tested myself. In my whole life, I haven’t ride a bike and drove it with just one hand. I was so afraid in doing it because of possible accidents. But this time, I was able to do it using both of my hands alternately. Then, I said to myself that I could live without hoping that you’ll love me and without loving you. It all started there….That same date that became another memorable moment for me because I was able to get close to another man who swept me off my feet.

Well, I’m really glad that I don’t feel anything for you anymore… I don’t have to suffer in silence anymore because of my love for you… It’s better this way. It’s better for us to be close and just friends.

Always take good care. I love you as my dearest friend ever!

Love,

Dear Mocha,

Depression hit me again last night that I was able to do some things that I might not have done without the aid of San Mig Light and Pepsi Max to boost my confidence.

No, it’s not what you’re thinking. Don’t get me wrong.

The heat of the evening gave me difficulty to sleep. So, I went outside of the boarding house and bought some drinks. Until I started to think of some things.

I miss my Mom… then I evaluated my decisions and some events of the past. And I finally had the courage to write my Last Letter for the Jerk.

I don’t think about ‘him’ and me anymore. You know how much I love my Sweetie… What I had with ‘him’ has long been over. And, I don’t regret anything. The letter is just somehow a formal goodbye.

Although I often feel lonely being alone in the boarding house, I will live up to my decisions and proveto them that I can stand on my own. No matter how painful and unbearable it could be.

Take Care my friend…

Miss you dear,

Dear ‘Amasa/Ai,’

You might be so surprised that I wrote to you. Don’t worry. I won’t beg to have you back. I’m happy now. Blissful in the arms of my Sweetie.

I just wanted to thank you for our break-up. If not for that, I would not have been the great person I am right now. Though, it still sucks that the end of us was because of the fact that you cheated on me for two months. Anyway, I don’t give a damn about it anymore. It’s not so worthy of my very precious time.

I wish you ‘both’ to be happy with each other. I hope that you are no longer the JERK that I used to know.

And, I will never ever call you ‘Amasa’ or ‘Ai’ anymore. Not even in my thoughts or dreams. (Asa ka pa that you still cross my mind noh…  hmph!)

Just me,

shiveringbluestar

Dear Mocha,

We just surprised one of our superiors today since she will be celebrating her birthday on Monday. She was so touched having received a bouquet of flowers, birthday card and gift from our group.  The look on her face is priceless. And it made me wonder if I’ll ever get to wear that look next month.

No dear, I don’t envy her. Remember that I used to enjoy birthday parties and stuff right? Well, this year might be different.

I’m on my own now, living away from my Mom and Dad. You know that I’m always sad whenever its my birthday. This year will be much lonelier. I’ll be celebrating my birthday alone.

My birthday will be on a Thursday. I can’t go home at that day. I got work. I’ll probably cry the entire night of that day, missing the good old times of celebrating with a cake. No, it’s not just the cake. It’s having someone to spend the occasion with. Its having your family with you in the moment.

Imagine, it will just be like any ordinary day… I would eat dinner in the nearby canteen to my boarding house. After that, I’ll lie on my bed and cuddle with my stuffed toys, thinking what my Mom is doing at that time. What would she cook for me if we’re together…

So much for all these… I’m becoming too dramatic in the wrong place and at the wrong time. I’m in the office right now and my eyes are already watery.

I think I have to end this now before an ocean spills from my eyes.

Hi Sweetie,

It’s almost half a year now and I can’t believe that it has been a long time already. It seems like only yesterday when I was endlessly crying and you were beside me and comforting me then… Perhaps you are even picturing in your mind right now the expression I wore on my face that night. But then, here we are now. Happy and still together.

Haaay… I’m now wondering again how did things happen. I mean, naaalala ko pa nga kung gaano ka-weird ang tingin ko sa’yo dati. Yes, I thought you’re weird. You came in the office with your shades on. You sat beside me, and did your business in the computer. You didn’t even bother to take off your eyewear. Pero, yup, you were really able to catch my attention. Okey sa style… Remember, “What’s your skypename?” Shy type ka pa kunwari.

I tried to turn you off actually during our first date. Medyo annoyed kasi ako sa pagiging demanding and makulit mo noon. I wore very comfortable clothes. I didn’t try to exert effort at all to impress you with how I dress. But, I felt a bit awkward when I saw you in your “Koreanovela” get-up. I thought an F4 member got lost in People Support Makati. And then, I started to become conscious of how I looked.

It was during that time when everything started. Okey, forget about the iced tea. You’re right. I thought you placed something in it. Paranoid talaga… hehehehe…

But you know what Sweetie. Despite the bloopers of our first date, you’re still able to ‘corrupt’ my mind. And then, I tried avoiding you but I also started missing you. Till it got worse that I already long for you.

What made me fall harder for you is how you cared for me when my ex and I broke up. I know that what you’re doing, looking after me, was tough. And yet, you didn’t leave me. and though you have all the chances way back when I was brokenhearted, you never took advantage of my vulnerability.

I was crying an ocean of tears when you told me that you loved me. I didn’t know what to say. And you even promised to always make me happy. Until now, you never broke that promise.

Back then, I thought you were insane. Crazy for offering help to me in case I’m pregnant. Although, as I recall things now, I find it so sweet of you… Wow, love mo ako talaga noh?

When Dad came back from the States, I thought I was gonna die. It kills me softly that I can’t see you. so many things entered my mind but thanks to you, I never believed any of them.

Your honesty made me strong and confident that you won’t cheat on me. I know how much you love me Sweetie. It shows. lalo na ‘pag nagseselos ka. Ang hirap mong suyuin eh. But its all worth it. I never thought that you’re jealous and possessive… Though, I confess that I also get flattered during those times.

Well, thank you Sweetie…You just don’t know how much it means to me that you’re always there for me. Thank you for helping me to stand on my own and face the world. I must admit too that I was so overwhelmed to meet your mom. She’s so nice and sweet just like you. I honestly like her and very pleased to meet her.

And, you surprised me just this April when you greeted me, “Sweetie Happy Monthsary” with that sexy voice of yours. We never celebrate those things but you remembered. It really amazed me.

I love you so much and for always Sweetie. I hope you feel it. Kung tatanungin mo naman ako why I love you… it’s because you mean so much to me. You are all I care about. It’s like, you are the sugar in my coffee and without you, my life will definitely be bitter.

I want to hug you tight as you read this. Cuddle with you and snuggle in your chest. I always miss you… mwah! mwah! mwah!

Love and yours only,

shiveringbluestar
