Dear Jenna,

Hi.

I'm Josh Dun, Tyler's boyfriend. It's been two years since you passed away, and Tyler and I just left graduation. He wanted us to visit your grave, like we do every month, but I know for a fact he goes at least once a week.

Tyler cared about you, I promise. If he didn't I wouldn't be giving him a moment alone while I write this. He cared about you, and your death hit hard. We were just over a year together when it happened. I remember you walking up, looking like hell, and punching Tyler in the face before pulling him in for a kiss and walking off. I remember a bunch of people hissing at you as Tyler and I just stared in confusion. The next day an envelope was on his doorstep and you were gone.

I hope you don't mind, but he let me read the letters a couple months ago, after a dinner date, he was super upset about it. I'm so sorry you went through that, I hope you knew that we never meant to hurt you, but...yeah...

Tyler's Blurryface, his demons, his anxiety, has gotten worse since you died. I've helped him through it as much as I can-I mean I love him, but it's hard. He tells me it's because of blurry and scars, but I know better.

A bruised girl that Tyler Robert Joseph used to date destroyed him. I'm trying to build him back up. It's not working. Guess we're both a lost cause.

One thing's for sure, Jenna.

Twenty one is his new number.
