You.

To You

Dear crush,

   Hi, it's me, Grace. You know me from being in some various classes together. I've probably liked you for around 2 years now. I remember when we used to exchange a couple of texts to each other and I remember smiling when you would reply and saying something cute, witty, or both. I would rarely talk to you during school because I was so shy and afraid that I would be blushing like a tomato in front of you. You were known as one of the nicest, kindest guys at school and it's no wonder why so many girls including me liked you.

   Now, since so many girls liked you, you had a few girlfriends. I was that girl in the corner vying for your attention while you focused yours on another girl who was popular, stunning, and smarter than I was. Every time, I tried to forget about you, I couldn't because the image of you smiling and laughing warmed my heart, and the memories I had with you were unforgettable. I even remember a time when I thought you liked me back and I was so ecstatic and filled with joy; until I found out you were already dating someone. I can't envy the girl you're dating right now because she is so kind to everyone she meets. I get jealous because you guys match each other completely and meant for each other. You guys would always hang out together, give out compliments; things a loving couple would do.

   Out of all the boys I've liked before, you're my favorite because we're so similar and your personality stands out. We're so similar that we even go to the same dentist! Haha, I recall the time I was waiting for my appointment and out of the blue, I saw you enter inside. I tried to not look at you, but I didn't want to be rude and I just waved at you. You waved back with a smile and my heart felt all warm and fuzzy; I didn't want that feeling to stop.

   Before, life was all black and white. The same routine everyday, going to school, doing my homework, eating, sleeping, repeat. But then, I met you. I could finally see the beautiful colors of life, how amazing it actually is. You made me see the world in a different perspective. Oh, how I wish I could be brave and confident enough to ask you out, but the reality is, I'm not. I'm just waiting for the day you will ask me out, but I know you're a very shy person like me too. Fate will decide for us what will happen. Who knows; maybe Fate might give us the little push we needed. I don't know when or if I will ever stop liking you, but I know I will never regret liking you even if you don't like me back.

Sincerely,

Grace
