A Paper Bridge Between Us

Sky and Nani met through a school penpal project, and their exchange of letters quickly became a safe space - a place full of honesty, support, and emotions they didn't share so strongly with anyone else.

Over the years, their bond grew stronger, but distance and unspoken feelings left them both wandering in their own tangled emotions, unaware of how much they mattered to each other.

Will the love that blossomed in the silence of words on paper be able to overcome the fear that their unbreakable bond might not survive beyond the world of pages and ink?

Dearest Sky,
Today someone asked me who my closest person is. I didn't know what to answer, because I couldn't say "the boy I've never met".
But that's how I feel, Sky.
Maybe it's absurd, but you're more to me than just ink on paper.
Yours always,
Nani

My dear Nani,
When I'm in a bad mood, I write to you. When I'm happy, I write to you. When I don't know what I feel, I write to you, too. Maybe because you're the only person I'd like to tell all of this... is you.
With love,
Sky
