The White Tulip (Symbolism Of My Feelings)

Morning Message

Honey

The next morning... What was it like... Ah, yes. I remember I didn't have a headache anymore; that's one thing. In fact, I felt alive. I smiled at the thought after I opened my eyes and looked to my right to reach the phone. I noticed a white letter under the device and curiously pick it up. As I was holding it in front of my face, still lying down on the soft bed, I saw a 'white tulip', drawn on the front and a quote: ''The fragrance of flowers spreads only in the direction of the wind. But the goodness of a person spreads in all direction.'' A familiar scent wandered around the room. You could imagine me dreaming and flying around my bedroom... virtually. His perfume was like a spirit of fantasy, pleasure, freedom... I closed my eyes and opened the letter, continuing to be mesmerized by the odor. Even though you might think guys spraying their own perfume on letters is bizarre, for me, it was a right thing to do. So I could recognize his signature.

My eyes opened in anticipation. The paper was ancient yellow-brown, the ends were burnt and black. It didn't have dust just like how old-fashioned letters usually have (not that I expected him to send me with some) or something that would dissatisfy me. It was just the opposite. Such romantic writings weren't seen everywhere and that made me over the moon.

''Dear Honey,

I'm not usually like this. You can't imagine me being romantic, right? Even my friends would agree and mock me that it doesn't suit me. But after our kiss under the shining waning crescent moon in the park, on the bench where we first sat after you made the alarm rang, to be exact, I couldn't sleep at all. Yes, I knew you did it.

It was Halloween, it was expected something scary to happen and definitely non-romantic. However, that day I told those three special and meaningful words to you. I was thinking about you the whole time. And I am honest about what I feel.

I was searching for you since you didn't come back. Did Suzy go extremely mad? I knew I hurt her feelings but from the start, my heart belongs to you only...

Your straight brown gleaming hair, your sparkling chestnut eyes, your natural and kind personality. All that attracts me. How could I resist such beautiful sight of yours?

I only wanted to know if you are doing fine since you didn't go to school. I hope to see you soon healthy.

I have to go practice.

Hugs and kisses,

L-oppa ;)

P.S I almost forgot. Love you.''

This was the first romantic letter I've ever received from a guy. My exes should eat stones compared to L. I jumped back and forth in joy. He's being so sweet. It would be nice of him if he writes more lovely letters to me, especially when I get sick. I don't think I will get tired of reading every single writing of his. A billion times and I will still not be able to be satisfied enough to stop. I ought to prepare a drawer for his upcoming letters.

After my morning routine, I went downstairs, humming 'Dynamite' by Taio Cruz. Aunt was cooking fermented Chinese cabbages for breakfast. The smell was delightful. I haven't eaten it for weeks. Auntie is a busy woman to make fancy meals but I see that she woke up early just so she cooks something out of the ordinary.

''Hey, Honey. Are you better now?''

I looked at my auntie's face. She had yellow and pink nuances, twirling and twisting. After a blink from my side, her face went back to normal - smooth, naturally white skin.
