Six Letters To You

♚ Letter Three ♚

The girl was sixteen, a sophomore in high school then. She has gotten rid of her braces, and a set of pearly white teeth sparkled whenever she smiled. She was pretty, but apparently, beauty was not enough. Not sufficient to capture the boy's heart. Because the boy was currently dating the school's head cheerleader, the most annoying and meanest girl she has ever met. 

"Hello," the boy greeted the girl warmly when he spotted her near the lockers. The girl looked up from the mass of books she balanced on her arms, and her eyes shimmered with joy when the boy came into view. His once chubby face that radiated with a healthy glow has became chiseled and defined now. He had dimples on either side of his face, which the girl has grown to be infatuated with. 

However, the sparkle in her eyes died when she saw the she-devil clinging on to the boy's arm like an irritating pest that just could not be gotten rid of. She swore she heard the she-devil snarl at her when they walked by. The she-devil never took a liking to the girl, since she was the boy's best friend, and any girl that was close to her 'property' was a potential life threat to her. 

Too bad the boy could not see the evil gleam in the she-devil's eyes whenever she glared at the girl.

Dear Kade,

You was always so oblivious. Oblivious to my feelings for you, to how evil your girlfriend was. She was only there to use you, your popularity. But you never knew that. Because you were innocent. You were you. And I love you for who you are. Why did you have to leave me?

Love,

Kaylee xxx

I set down the pen and sealed the letter with my fingers. The tears have long run dry, and now I was seated in the shrink's clinic, waiting for the plump, old woman to come in and 'speak' to me. My parents have managed to pry open the lock on my bedroom door one day later, opening the door to reveal a lifeless body that was sprawled on the floor. A lifeless body akin to Kade's. That was me. I had fainted due to hunger. That was when my parents made the stupid decision of sending me to see a shrink. To distract me from thinking about Kade. But they'll never understand, that no matter how many shrinks they send me to, no matter how they force me to move on, I could not move on. I could not forget. 

"Your body was all rigid and stiff, and your eyes were half-open, Kaylee," my mother sobbed to me when I was still lying on the hospital bed, recuperating in the hospital. I laid there silently, listening to my mother as she recounted how she found me in my room. 

Even though I remained quiet, a million thoughts were running in my mind. Did Kade look like that before he died? Did he feel anything before he passed away? 

Finally deciding that the thoughts were too overwhelming to handle, I let my eyes flutter close, allowing myself to drift away to sleep, where hopefully, I will meet Kade there.
