WE ARE TEN

Dear Park,
This year was really happy. We started playing together. And you also told me sorry for making me feel left out.
More than that, I was happy because we ended up in the same class in spite of classes getting shuffled. I don’t know how I would’ve survived without us being together.
I also loved the gift you sent me. I wanted to read Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde’s story since a long time. And it’s so lovely! You should totally read it! (even though I know you hardly read school’s study material)
To sum up everything about this year, I would say this year has been really amazing for us. Whenever I was in a grumpy mood, and acting like Elsa – you would cheer me up with your puns and jokes like Olaf.
But there has been this one problem which is constantly bugging me.
I think mom and dad are hiding something from me. I don’t know but they aren’t home during bed time these days. I feel lonely sometimes. Your mom invited me, saying that we can have night outs together. But I think our classmates will tease us about it so I refused her. I hope she doesn’t feel bad about it and still allows me to play with you. (Mrs. Alwyn if you're reading this, I LOVE YOU !! Please don’t be mad at me !!)
I don’t know when mom and dad will return. I hope everything's really okay. I’m trying to keep the lights on and sleep.. but this is hard, you know? I hate being in darkness alone – during the nights but I’m still trying. Mom and dad talk in hushed tones, and I know something’s really wrong. I just read somewhere that instead of perfect, we’re human, and maybe that’s why life doesn’t go as we want it to.
Anyway, I hope you liked the gift I sent you for this year – it’s a soccer kit. I hope they won’t tease you now for using the dummy one. Score a lot of goals in the next inter class.
