Dear Oden,

It was hard knowing that you'd gotten married. I wanted to be ok with it, but I couldn't. I honestly don't know what to do anymore. You've moved on. It's been two years now. Two years since we parted. I still remember the day you left.

It was a cold winter night, right after my we had celebrated my birthday with our friends. While we were celebrating, I had noticed your change of behavior. The usual bright glow in your eyes had vanished. You started to speak with em more cautiously like I was a porcelain doll that you didn't want to drop. Your tone was also starting to sound dejected as the night grew older.

"Aeka," you said so softly I could barely hear what you had said.

"Is something wrong?" I asked warily looking up.

"I-I don't know if," you paused taking a deep breath, "I don't know if I can continue with this."

"W-what? What do you mean this?" I questioned your confession.

"Aeka, my love, I'm sorry, but I can't deal with us anymore. It's just to much. You're an amazing girl and you make my heart burst with joy every time I see you smile. But we need to break up."

Shocked, with tears starting to take over my vision, I replied, "Why Oden? I-I thought we were okay."

I watched as you brushed your fingers through your hair. Your heartbroken eyes looked to the right and then to the left. After a few seconds, your eyes landed back on mine.

"I have to go."

With that you turned around leaving me alone on the empty street.

I watched as you walked faster and faster until you were out of sight.

I stood their wishing for you to come back.

You did not.

I was alone,

on a cold night,

on my birthday.

That was the end of us. That memory comes rushing back to my brain overtime I hear your name. Every time I believe that it's finally gone, it comes running back as if it is a loose string that can never be cut.

I just wanted to tell you I never stopped loving you. I never stopped thinking about you. Everything around me reminded me of you. I couldn't get the feeling of a broken heart to go away. You've moved on. And I should to. If you have time and receive this please meet me at our tree at noon.

Goodbye forever.

-Aeka
