Wrong Person, Write Love.

Prose 010

***

"Never force someone to love you back. Love is a choice-- not an obligation. It may be like you're waiting in vain, but understand that some people needed more time to realize what their heart truly wants.

So when someone like that chooses to finally love you, never, ever let them go."

- Aries

"I can still recall that one night I asked you what your greatest fear is. I didn't expect you to be so serious about it, since you've always been a cheerful and easy-going person.

You told me you were afraid of forgetting.

I didn't understand it that much back then, probably because I was still naive when it comes to pain and loss. I haven't really risked too much for love before, so

I didn't know that it can really be this frightening.

But then you told me how you forgot your name and your family back when you are a kid, and how you sometimes forget where you are and what you are doing there. It was hard to believe-- but then I thought, what if it really happened?

Will you really forget about me too?

So that's how I started to write a lot of letters and prose for you.

I even wrote a novel based on our story.

I thought, If it ever happens that you forgot about me-- and us, I'll give you all these letters. I'd make you remember me no matter what happens. I'd be sure to make you fall for me again, even if that means I'll have to write for you forever.

You got so afraid, you see, that you'll forget about me-- not knowing that there's something even worse than being forgotten.

That is when you still know how much I loved you, but you've still fallen out of love from me.

It's kinda cruel to think that both of us can still remember everything, but that I'm the only who still can't move on from them.

So much for me writing just so you won't be afraid anymore."
