Dear Zelda,

One thing that I absolutely adore about you is that you love celebrating every milestone in the lives of the people you love. And I like celebrating every milestone of yours.

One time you celebrated without me even realising that you had planned something was when my company came on the top 5 of the New York Times! Like whaaaaattt! (the way you spoke on daily basis back in college)
It was a big  deal considering the fact that it was only a year since I started the company.

That was about the time you were all I need to go for a jog everyday! I can't go a day without my morning jog. So it was just any other regular day when you woke up extremely early in the morning freshen up wear comfortable clothes and go for a jog. Being the 'not morning person' that I am I slept on. You went for your regular one and a half hour jog and when you got back home you ran into my room pulled out my blanket and pushed me off the bed. You sat one me and yelled, "get your lazy ass up and look at this!" You said holding a magazine in your hand and reading what's written.
"First. The company has come on top five New York Times" You said and when I was going to say something with excitement you shush me and continue... "Zac Andrews of New York city started his very own company a year ago and now is in the top 5th company worldwide. A company that started from the grass root level went up to great levels of success in just one year" there were a few more things that I don't remember.

Once you were done and grinning at me I smiled back and said, "Let's open a bottle of champagne to this?" And you vigorously nodded your head.

I really enjoyed that morning and afternoon because I got to spend it with you. We had a nice breakfast (well kind of nice because you cooked it) and there was an all day star wars marathon on television which we watched. I cannot believe you hadn't watched star wars until I made you in college! You really were a weird child. You're not now of course!!

So we watched the movies while sitting around eating and drinking our champagne and other such things.
At this point I was getting a little suspicious because it's you Zelda Storm (I love saying your last name. Damn it's hot!) and you haven't called home a million people to celebrate yet.

About 4 in the evening I got a call from Nicholas and he asked me to meet him at the bar. I quickly put on some good clothes that made me look like someone whose company is in the top 5 of New York Times. And is known to be really successful... You know... Okay so I'm really trying not to boast here!

So... I go down to the pub that's on the right next to our house because back in college that was the dream. But now that I think about it, not so much the dream. We have guys that walk up to our house in the middle of the night drunk as hell. That is exactly why we don't see so many kids in our apartment except for that one neighbor girl.
Anyway.... So I went down to the bar and spotted Nicholas almost immediately. He had champagne on the table and waited for me. "Let's celebrate bro! You're the owner of one of the top 5th company! That's huge!" He said and we opened the champagne to that. About 5 minutes later my sister walks in and gives me a huge smile. I talk to her for a bit and then another friend walks in. This goes on for a couple of others that I know, my parents and all my company people. Coincidentally all of them were here to celebrate. Hmm... I wondered who could have told them all to come here, oh yes, it was you... Sigh.... You're never going to change.... I'm not telling you to. I love you just the way you are. That's an expression. But of course you know that!

After all of them got there lastly you walked in through the door looking beautiful as ever and gave me one of your million dollar smiles that I wouldn't lose for anything. You're perfect my snowStorm!

Later that night I found that after your morning jog when you stopped by the news stand to pick up your regular set of magazines and started reading The New York Times. And as soon as you read the article about our company you texted everyone, called Nicholas and told him the plan and made sure he took care of everything. You threatened him that you'd post his drunk confession video online if he didn't make sure that everything went well and on time...

That day was not only the day that the company had a major success but also the day when I realised that I'd never let you go. Whatever it takes. Because you were there for me at all times. You supported me when I wanted to start the company and stood by me when everyone else said that it was a bad idea  and that it wouldn't work. You believed in me and I love you for that!

Yours forever,
Zac

P.S. There you go I tried to make it fun :) I love you snowStorm! <3
