‘I jumped with joy when I saw that!
‘I’ve never been so happy, sending you messages and waiting for you to reply to me.
‘Every time I read your message, it would be like God had decided to bless me. Do you know how hard it is for me to contain myself, to not spam you with messages, to not annoy you with the endless questions I have?
‘There are endless things I want to ask and tell you, but I can’t bring myself to send you any messages. I can only try and put pen to paper and hope that my feelings will be able to be conveyed through letters. Perhaps this is why we always have the notion that old letters are romantic.
‘My last letter should have reached your residence by now. You probably haven’t read it since you’re in Birmingham. That’s fine. There’s no rush.
‘My only worry is that you’d have torn it to shreds before even opening it up.
‘I have zero confidence in you reading that letter.
‘I’ll assume that the last letter didn’t reach you and that you haven’t read it. That way, I’d have the courage to write what I want to say.
I’ve been restless these few days, almost like something bad is about to happen. No matter how much I want to chalk it up to superstition, my gut feeling when something terrible is about to happen has never been wrong.
‘All I hope is that nothing bad will ever happen to you.
As for me… A fortune teller once told me that there would be three significant hurdles in my life. As long as I could clear these hurdles, I would be safe. If I can’t, then nothing will be left of me for you to hate.
‘I don’t know if the fortune teller is correct or not. I’ve never been afraid of life’s challenges. After all, I’ve already written my will. If I die, everything will be taken care of. ‘However, when that day comes, I still feel fear. Not because I’m afraid of death, but rather, because I’m worried that my entire life will be filled with regret. ‘How can I leave when you still haven’t forgiven me?
‘I’m also afraid that you would meet somebody else in Birmingham, somebody who’s better than me, somebody who treats you well, somebody who’s more mature, more caring than me..
‘With that thought in mind, I think anybody would be better than me. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
‘I can’t deny that I’m a greedy person. I’m already unsatisfied with only messages and phone calls. I want to see you in the flesh.
‘I know how sly men can be. All I ask is that you don’t fall for the trap of some men who are too good to be true.
‘You’re too inexperienced, and I’m scared it would be your downfall.
‘If I were to tell you that nothing happened between us that night and that I made everything up, would you forgive me, or would you hate me even more? Would you hate me for how I lied to you?
“Perhaps you can tell me to my face.
‘In hopes of meeting you soon.
“Jace.’
Sage felt her eyes widen when she read the last few lines of his letter. Nothing happened that night? Did he make everything up? “Jace, you piece of sh*t!” exclaimed Sage again.
