All The Reasons Why ✔️

Letter Three

I couldn't get you out of my mind for weeks after that. Did anyone ever tell you that you were so radiant, the sun looked dim in comparison? I've always wondered if the universe gave you to me because the stars were jealous of you. That's why they had me break you.

I realized that I was ice and you were fire. And I'd snuff out your flame before you could ever melt me.

Jessica asks me what happened between us at least once a week, but I don't know what to tell her. I'm afraid she'll leave me if I do. And I think that I love her, Tat. But not as much as I loved you.

It's easier to write to you now. To think about you. I know I'm over you completely. You're not over me though, are you? I can see you staring at me even when you think I don't notice. I wish you wouldn't because it makes me feel guilty. I know that I should, but does anyone like to feel that way?

Maybe they do. Maybe I'm just so selfish I don't care. That's what you think, right? Maybe you aren't wrong.

Maybe I am as shitty as everyone thinks I am.

Aidan.
