TO WELT YANG- MY DEAREST

You have always surprised me.

From the moment you nervously told me you loved me by the brook side, hands fidgety.

And even farther back when you muttered 'thank you' to me as I handed you my umbrella since you lost yours outside of the auditorium- I was still in training back then.

Yet, I never could of thought you would tell me those same words that day-that you would leave for another universe entirely in hopes of saving a world that did not even know your name.

That's my Welt for you, mature, level headed, stubborn at times yet always willing to seek and make peace at heart.

It was infuriating for a very long time, to see you constantly saving lives without a beat of hesitation. I could not wrap my head around it. However, in due time, I did.

It was when you brought me to your workplace for the first time and showed me a star right up close. Mouthing breathlessly, that 'we will be stars.'

I understood why you put your heart out for the world Welt, that truth sparked within me just like those stars. Infinite and beautiful, just like you.

I also learned an even deeper truth, that I would not be there with you when you became a star.

Perhaps it is wrong of me to continue to hope, pray and put my deepest faith in you. Some may call it one sided, but I know you would never do that. Not after everything we've done together- like baking, pillow fights, sitting in comfortable silence, crying in each other's arm, stating boundaries, or merely talking about how our days has been.

I am upset. I do mourn the nights we will be farther apart then my letters can ever reach. I am angry. Nevertheless, I will allow myself to feel just as you have guided me to do. I won't be alone and I will continue to be happy not for you, but for myself.

And I hope the very same for you Welt. That we can both be happy and even with the distance between us, remember that I am right with you. We have already been stars from the very beginning dearest.

I also know very well that you will keep your promise, just as you said, "When I return, we will get married. I know I have already been selfish of you, but please dear, wait for me."

Because you would steal the stars for me and tell me about each world you visited as I fall asleep to your voice again and again. Thus, I will wait patiently, our memories in my heart forever. Even if we no longer gaze at the same moon.

Set the night aflame dearest with all your vibrancy, for I will feel it too with all the ardency left in my being.

I love you.
