It all started when I met her. I was so mesmerized by her beauty. The way she looked so fierce when she argued with Jay. I didn't know at first that I'll admire her that hard. We spent the rest of the day awkwardly. I didn't know how to approach her. I suddenly became shy around her. But when she grabbed my hand that day, I knew it already. Everything won't be the same as long as I'm around her.

Our paths crossed multiple times, we see each other almost everyday. Strangely, I craved for her presence ever since. The way her eye smile when she talks. The way she look whenever she scolds her friends for doing something bad or dangerous. The way she care for her friends. I knew it, she's the someone I want to be with.

When the news of her in the hospital came to me, I realized that I care for her that much. I wanted her to be well and fine. I wanted to take care of her. I wanted to be the one who will make her feel loved. I wanted to be the one who will be by her side. I wanted to be the one for her. Yet I didn't know that my idiocy will cause for me to be the one that got away.

I was so dumb and close-minded. I blamed myself so much for that. I cried every night after Soobin told me his evil plan. I hated myself for being such a coward. I hated myself for not trusting her. I spent my nights being vulnerable, having my dear beers to accompany me.

"What's happening to you, Vinnie?"

My mom cried a lot after she witnessed how I would get wasted every night and cry to myself. My broken heart shattered into tiny pieces when my mom's tears fell. Her heart was broken ever since she married that damn father of mine, then now I just broke it more. I swore to myself that I won't be like him.

So, I did eventually changed. I stopped drinking starting the next night. Yet my mom isn't happy still for I would tire myself in dancing. I would dance all-night in my own practice room. Causing my body to ache and drain myself. It's much better than having the pain inside me.

"Let's talk, Vinnie. Tell me what's the problem."

She sneaked inside my practice room that night. She didn't mind her tiredness from work and travelling just to talk to me. My tears fell as soon as I saw how her tired her eyes are. She stayed awake just for me.

We talked about me. I told her why I'm like that. She even smacked my head for letting go of Yuri. She said that she won't talk to me unless I bring Yuri to her. She did what she told me. She didn't talk to me for weeks. Yet she kept giving me notes through our maids. Stating the reason why she's doing that.

Vinnie,

I know you might find this whole thing silly but I just want you to be happy. Stop blaming yourself for what happened. It won't bring her back. Have the courage to face and pursue her again. You might be wondering why I'm pushing you to her. It's because I know you're safe with her. I know she will take care of you, love you, help you, and grow with you. She's too good to be true but she's real and there for you. So stop whining there and be a woman. A woman who is strong enough to face and pursue what she loves. You love her I know that so don't give up. Go and get your girl, Vinnie. She's so precious that's why many people wants to get her but too bad, her heart belongs to you.

The woman who loves you,
Mom

I teared up after reading that small letter from her. The way she boosted my confidence, nobody can do that except from her.
