PAGE 01 / 04THE BEGINNING

HEY, BHONDUU,

At first,
we just talked.

Then, at some point, talking to you became the part of my day I looked forward to. I can’t tell you exactly when it happened. I just know I’m glad it did.

And yes, I got attached. Happy?
PAGE 02 / 04THE DISTANCE

KILOMETRES. TOO MANY OF THEM.

Too far.
Still close.

Some days I really hate the kilometres between us. Then something tiny happens and you’re still the first person I want to tell. I’m waiting for the day I can say it all without a screen in between.

Until then, I’m right here, dumbo.

ONE LAST LETTERFOR DUMB4 ONLY

BEFORE YOU GO

This part is
just for you.

I put the most important words inside. Open it when you’re ready.

12 OCTOBER · ONE YEARFOR YOU.
12 OCTOBERONLY FOR YOU

My bhonduu,

One whole year of us. I keep thinking about that, and about how you became the person I want to tell everything to. The good news, the bad days, even the stupid little things that would mean nothing to anyone else. Somehow, I always want to share them with you.

I hate that I can’t be next to you today. I want to see your face when you open this. I want to hold you and say happy anniversary without a screen between us. I can’t do that yet, and honestly, some days the distance hurts more than I let on.

Still, this year with you has been worth every hard part. You make me feel close to you even when you’re far away. I don’t know how you do it, Dumbo. I just know that when I think about the days ahead, I want you in them.

Thank you for letting me be part of your life this year. Thank you for every laugh, every conversation, and every little moment that became ours. I love you. I miss you. And if I could start this year over, I would choose you all over again.

Happy first anniversary, bhonduu. One day I’ll get to say all of this while holding your hand.

Yours always,
Dumbo.

WE’RE NOT DONE WRITING THIS.♡
