The sky was nice today. It's a bit cloudy but still, the way the blue color spreads across the sky is such a perfect view. And the park was as peaceful as the heavens above me, there were only a few people. This is solitude, I want this.
I walk a few more steps and then I sat down on a bench. I opened my bag and brought a white long envelope. It wasn't sealed and it doesn't have a stamp on the outside.
At the back of it, it reads "Nicomaine"
I opened the envelope. This is the first letter, from the box of letters he gave me that I will read.
I hope it's a good one.
"Dear Nicomaine,
You were beautiful today. Thank you pala sa cupcakes hahaha. Pang ilang cupcakes na ba to? Pang one hundred forty two na yata? Hahaha. Sarap talaga pag gawa mo or pag galing sayo, baby.
Nabasa mo ba yung librong binigay ko sayo? Kamusta? Nagustuhan mo naman? Haha Sana nagustuhan mo nga. Eh yung mga food na pinadala ko sa bahay nyo? Nakarating naman? Sino umubos? Ikaw ba or si yaya pepe or si matti? Hahaha.
Namiss kita nung nag Singapore ako. Kahit na lagi tayong magka video call eh, nakaka miss pa rin yung pag andyan ka sa tabi ko, literal ha. Masyado na bang cheesy? Hahahaha.
Ang ganda ng buwan ngayon, at yung mga bituin, kitang kita mong kumikinang, hahaha Oo na nasa terrace na ko habang sinusulat to, wag ka ng ano. Hahaha.
Happy ka naman, babe? Salamat pala sa lahat ng sulat mo ha? Hahaha alam kong tatlong taon na tayong nagsusulatan at lagi naman akong nagpapasalamat pero wala, magpapasalamat ulit ako, kasi sobrang grateful ako na meron tayong ganito, na may love letters pa, sa iba kasi di na uso to? But napapatunayan natin na, basta mahal mo, di mo kailangan sumunod sa uso or sa kahit na sino kasi ang mahalaga eh yung masaya kayong pareho.
Alam kong magkikita naman tayo ulit eh. Bukas. Sa broadway. Pero masaya ako pag sinusulatan kita. Talaga. And alam mo naman na mahal kita di ba? At walang magbabago sa atin. Ikaw at ako lang. Tayo lang. Sige hanggang dito na lang muna. Antok na ko. Hahahaha.
See you tomorrow, baby! I love you. Forever and a lifetime.
Always yours,
Rj"
I closed the letter smiling. He has this light side naman pala, I thought to myself. I mean for the last few times that I saw him, he was either anxious or tired or both but after reading this letter, I learned that he has this warm and funny side din pala. I wonder if ever get to see that in real life and not just on letters.
I wonder.
But my heart wonders more.
I was about to grab another letter from my bag when I felt water droplets, I looked up and I saw the blue sky from earlier was now gloomy and greyish. I stood up but before I could even further from where I was sitting before, the heavy rain fell down on me. I hid my small handbag inside my shirt, I don't want the letters to get wet and be ruined. I haven't read them yet.
