*PRESENT DAY: 22nd December, 2023*
*BACK TO THE PREVIOUS: August 31st, 2023*
Dear Reader,
After the 1st, the remaining days of August provided me with reasons to accept distance. So, on the 31st of August, 2023, a little less, I hated her. She made me realize that most relationships are not meant to last indefinitely. The prolonged period of distance from many people helped me understand that she was merely a bridge for those seeking to move on.
I eventually forgave her as she was the victim in this scenario. People consistently took advantage of her, yet she appeared as the one at fault—easier to blame than to understand.
We remained distanced for an extended period, and one-sided communication became our only link. I would make calls and engage in conversations, while they seemingly had nothing to discuss. If there was a fracture, it was their doing. I should harbor resentment towards them, not her, as their priorities shifted significantly, and nothing remained the same.
They decided to move on without concern for our connection. But why did they opt for the distance that fractured us? I should hold them accountable because only my heart grew fonder while theirs didn't seem to care. I couldn't muster a smile in front of the camera, yet they appeared joyous in every photograph taken without me.
Dear Reader, on the 31st of August, 2023, similar to them, I chose her and resolved to savor every minute of forever, even though we would never share them together.
