Seven fifty three in the morning and surprisingly Brei hasn't receive any text from him yet. Maybe, he's still preparing for something special she thought. So, she smiled it away and got off bed.

The moment Brei stood up she accidentally faced her jars of letters. That gloomy boy from her past, he did gave her a jar of letters.

I should read those one more time...

She went her way to the jars while dragging her seat. Then she sat down and breaths in and out. The letters were of different colors. No wonder it was like a paradise past for her. She took one and opened it. She had a silly one and it started with the title of that story she's almost done with.

To my Euphoria,

•••

Meet me at the the park. I have something to give you

Receiving that text Brei smiled and stopped studying. That guy for sure doesn't want to study so she took some notes with her.

On the same bench she sat and waited for him to come. While waiting, she chose to read some more cause what else could she do.

It took a while until a pair of hands covered her eyes and she smiled. "Aye! I know it's you!"

He put his hand down while chuckling and sat beside her. "Did I disturb you studying?" He asked adorably.

"Hmm... you kind of did but I was too curious what you gonna give this time," she said, raising a brow and closed her book.

"Aye! You're not happy to see me?" He asked and pouted.

"Oh my God!" She yelled as she chuckled. "Of course I came to see you too."

He then grinned at what she said. "Here." He handed her a bag and it was kind of heavy.

Brei curiously opened the bag and saw a cute jar with a letter inside. She looks at him for a moment and smiled as she took it out.

"I'm guessing you want me to keep all of your stuffs here?" Brei asked him.

"Kind of like that. But I know letters are overrated but I promise to give you letters until this jar is full. And then I'll give you another empty jar and fill it with colorful letters again," he proudly said as he smirks at her.

Brei couldn't help but get teary eyed at what he said. She couldn't help herself and hugged him. It was hard not fall for someone who makes the little things feel like they're grand.

"I know, we're like only in high school and people say we're too young to decide if we're going to last. But, the way I feel about you is something stronger than just feelings."

Brei broke the hug to look at him as he wipe her tears away. "Be sure to find me, okay? There's a lot of stars out there and I hope you'll always look up to only me. I hope you won't get confused when another star twinkles like I do. It would really break my heart."

*knock*knock*

Brei snapped out of her past as soon as she heard that knock. She hurried up thinking it's Mikael outside her door but when she opened it, it was a woman.

"My dear!" Nanny Greta yelled in excitement and that's when Brei realized it was her.

"Nanny Greta!" She yelled back and hugged her Nanny.

Since nanny Greta is back, Brei set aside her feelings and decided to ask her nanny a lot of questions. They talked while nanny Greta cooked for her. Then Brei started to talk about Mikael, how he was like her past love.

"So you mean you finally are letting go of-"

"Nope! Not letting go, just accepting the fact that he and I can only stare at the same sky. And not stare at it beside each other," Brei cut her nanny off.

Nanny Greta hid a smile. She adores how Brei thinks and speaks. Such a wonderful lady with a heart that can take a thousand heartbreaking truths. "I'm glad to hear the my dear."

"Maybe I should invite Mikael later right? To watch the sunset at the bridge cause last time we didn't get to. What do you say Nanny Greta?"

Nanny Greta could hear the excitement in her voice. That's why now she worries that it'll turn out like before. That she returned with the saddest face she has ever seen.

"If you're brave enough then go ahead," Nanny Greta told Brei. And that's when she felt a hug from Brei once more. "Be careful with your heart..."
