Day 1 — Your Best Friend

                              

My Best Friend,

    I just want to say that you are the most demanding person I love here on earth.

     Whenever you tell or want something from me, I gave it without a second thought. Just this morning, you told me that you’re longing for me because I wasn’t able to reply to your text messages. I’m sorry for being a bitch in the past two months. Now, you know the feeling of being ignored.

    Okay, I’m just kidding. Maybe I was busy or was out of credit. So the best way to make it up to you is to visit you this All Saint’s Day. How sweet, right? But honestly, I really miss you. Despite the fact that we don’t talk much, you never fail to touch my heart. You’re still the first person I thought of when I have good or bad stories to tell. We’re best of friends but people don’t see it. Sometimes, I’m getting too paranoid that someone might replace me. Or should I ask, did someone already replace me?

    Before anything else, I was reading my blog last night. Perhaps the message was really for you, and I forgot the reason why I wrote this:

     "My friend, I really am sorry about what happened yesternyt when you called, I know, my bad.. Lately, I know on my own that we're not okay. You've been very busy, so am I. I have a lot of things I wanted to tell you, but whatever time I find to share it with you, but still... I can't. I promise that I won't promise anything to you again, because as we grow older, all of them were meant to be broken. It pains me to see you this way. I can only imagine what you are going through, I know that. In your unguarded moments, I see how much you are hurting. Yes, no matter how hard you try not to show it to me, I can see. If only there is anything I can do for you, I would. But you won't let me."

    Funny, you replied after two months saying “ang tagal na pala nito," instead of reacting on what was written in there. Funny again, because I was so emotional at that night and I am laughing right now because I can’t imagine myself writing this kind of stuff today. Seriously, do you still remember what was this all about? Tell me! ROFL.

    Anywaaaaaay. I’m writing this 30-day-letter-challenge because I wanted to tell you that I’m still here for you. You can still share little things to me, about what’s happening to your work, work friends and the new people you met. You can still share your food with me. You can still cry on my shoulder when people try to put you down, just like the old times. Distance may separate us, new stuff may keep us apart, time may not permit us to see each other that often but you should know that I, your “best friend na pare pa”, will always be here the way I have always been.

    Thanks so much for everything. May we continue to be very beautiful in the eyes of all men. Haha, seriously, continue to be ourselves. Let’s have dinner soon! I loview and I mishew so much it hurts.

Sincerely,
Your Best Friend.
