Dear other-half of mine,

How are you? Hope you're doing fine. Nah, not fine but amazing!
You remember yesterday (23 October)? It was the day when we met for the first time after a long lockdown of corona.
It was our exam day and I was just waiting, ever so eagerly, to meet you, like, not on whatsapp chat or call but, face to face, in person, finallyyyy. As much as I was excited, the more I was panicking.

I was waiting for you after the examination, pacing back and forth, my eyes were searching for your one glance, wondering how you might look in reality. But then, you came and I just shifted my gaze immediately towards my friends. I was too introvert in real life unlike, how I'm while chatting over the phone. So, there I was, wondering what you're gonna do after meeting me for the first time. And what you did, indeed, made me completely frozen for a second. You came ignoring everyone, directly to me, engulfing me in a tight hug. Well, I was too surprised to even return that hug, so I just held you, unconsciously, ever so lightly. Ofcourse, I am not a hug kinda person. I never let anyone come close to me physically, even if, they're my close friends. But you! You're indeed an exception who embraced me without even giving any warning, without even taking my permission, without even giving me a moment to think and interpret what's going on. That day— I can never forget that day. Yeah, after reaching home, you sent a lotsss of 'sorry' messages for hugging me without concession. Well, I find that actually soo funny and cute.

From then, I became a clingy type of person who always crave for hugs. Uhh..huh....let me correct - who crave only for your hugs. I still can't allow anyone else to hug me like this, like for - minutes? Arghhhh... it's my favourite place. Your embrace is my safest place!

Well, yesterday I saw your insta story with a guy along with the caption—

'Celebrating my special day with this amazing person.'

Well, I don't even know who he is. Your friend, brother, colleague, relative or..., no, I don't even wanna think that far but this stupid mind of mine. I can't help but feel kinda pain and, in addition to that, jealousy?
Yeah, it's so obvious, like I always used to do whenever I see you with anyone else. The difference is just that, now, I can't tell you or show you how I'm feeling. I had already done it too much that, now, i regret it every single minute. I wish I could tell you again how much I'm hurt but, I think it's better for you, that I just stay far and far away from you. I don't want you to feel any guilt. I don't want you to blame yourself for the pain I'm feeling. So, I just can't help than seeing you happy and smiling from afar and maintaining a distance between you and me.

Today again, I've seen your story-
picture of a handwritten letter that someone, a friend probably I wish, has given you. And your caption about how much you love handwritten letters. I wish, I could show you how many I've written for you already. But it will better remain unsent. I hope you always enjoy and make lots a lots of happy memories, even if I won't be involved in those memories.

Stay healthy, happy and always keep smiling as your smile is one of the things that I cherish the most.

Well, I forgot to tell you that, you were looking fabulously gorgeous on your birthday. Well, you always do but, that red dress and in that cafe or something? I thinking you're growing more and more pretty day by day. Just don't! You're already nothing less than someone who can take anyone's breathe away at first glance. How much more pretty do you wanna be?

I love you my prettiest gorgeous moon!

Again your "just friend"
khushi
