Jeon Wonwoo,
I kept wondering how have you been and I hoped that you were doing fine, despite all the stress that university life is giving you. It was hard, huh? I struggled to survive as well, but I managed to make it out. I finished my course and graduated. Eomma told me you graduated as well, and you started to work as soon as you finished university. Eomma told me that uncle trained you to manage his business, and she told me you were doing well. That was good news,

Wonwoo-yah, eomma was curious as to why I kept on asking her about you. I told her that I lost contact with you ever since we graduated from high school, eomma asked if I wanted your phone number but I refused, I told her I will get your phone number soon, I made an excuse to her that I was busy with my studies that it might be hard to contact you, and it would be disturbing to contact you while you were studying as well. She was hesitant to believe me at first but she eventually bought my excuses.

You know, during my years in university, I did not only struggle with my studies but I also struggled with my emotions. I kept thinking about you and I kept asking myself if you were doing fine alone. I mean, I had no idea if you were really alone or if you had any new friends, perhaps a special friend.

You never liked any girls because you kept pushing them away if they get near you. Back in highschool people kept saying you were the cold prince, you never once spared a glance to any of the girls. You never once paid any attention to them except for me. Women were never your interest, but that doesn't mean it stays like that until now... right?

There has to be someone that caught your eyes, Wonwoo-yah. I might not know about it but if you found one, I would be your number one supporter. If I have to tell you about me, there was still no one. I had no interest in the guys from my university, there was this one senior who started to notice me and he made friends with me, he's a nice guy and even if he is troublesome but he is a good friend.

He confessed to me one day when we were hanging out, I felt bad for rejecting him but he was fine with it as well. We did not get awkward afterwards, even if he told me that it'll take time for him to move on but he managed to get over me because around five months after, he got himself a girlfriend.

I even got myself a friend as well! Her name is Dania Park, she was in the same course as mine. She approached me when I was quite lost, even though I studied there for five months already but there was parts of the university that I wasn't familiar with yet. She helped me around and since then we became friends.

Dania kept me company throughout my years in university, we became quite close but I can't say she's my bestfriend because she has her own 'personal' bestfriend. I was okay with that but certain times without her companion, I was starting to get afraid doing things on my own. I was starting to get scared of being alone, physically and emotionally, perhaps it was because you weren't there with me.

By that time, I thought that without you, it was me against the world.

Let's say the university life was better than high school because no one noticed me, except for Dania and that senior of course. In the university life, I get to be nobody, it was easier to get through it because everyone here were all strangers, they weren't the same people back in our island. So there wasn't any drama, I went through university life in peace, the only times I got stressed was when exams were nearing and when I thought about you.

Was it the same with you, Jeon Wonwoo? Did your university life went smoothly, or did you went through some hard times? It was really difficult for me to relax my mind when I know you were out there on your own and I had no source of information for you, I was worried about you and as a former bestfriend, all I did was hope that nothing happens to you. I know it was my fault that our friendship ended but you never left my mind.
