“July. 12. 1999”

Dear Tei,

It is been 5 years of waiting. When are you going back into my arms, my love? Should I be frightened?

How come I’d never knew this happened. Our world’s were never been same at first, or so I thought.

You were the world that meant more to me. I never expected it to end sooner, my lord. Perhaps I was dreaming. Dreaming that you weren’t real or... it wasn’t really you.

I have even made a poem for you (and you only)

“Am I still in your galaxy?

I thought I could die, but it was just a single word ‘mine’.

Days passed like a blur as I sat painting the next chapter.

I miss you dear Tei.

Please come back to your cage. Here with me.”

...........

(THROWBACK)

“Hey! Andrew! Stop running!” Tei called out as he chased after him. Andrew held a stuff toy “Make me then!” Andrew teased as they kept running in circles in the living room.

......

I used to think it’ll be a week. Tei, remmember when I took your Teddy? You were all about to cry as you chased after me. The butler couldn’t take our noise anymore and he snap at us, it was funny.

We kept glancing at each other, don’t know what to do. We were just 10 years old at time, kids do make mistakes.

“To them I am a glass,

breakable and wouldn’t last.

To you I am water,

essential and pure.”

How long would it take to meet it ends?

(THROWBACK)

“Andrew.... I-I’m getting... mar...ried” Tei murmured, as I stood frozed on the spot.

.......

Your finally was religous. They weren’t going to both a guy liking one another, right?

It’s not like how matter my blood boils it would make them realize that love is for everyone and by gender but.....

I couldn’t help but think..

Can someone liking the same gender go to heaven?

That thought somehow shattered the ‘delulu’ hope I’ve been clinging to.

Our story was a total blurred just as like how confusing our Love could be.

That The Galaxy disagree.

What more can I say, I was the one whi susgest it. For you to marry someone whom you barely talk to.

It was my selfishness for caring for you. It didn’t matter what you think, I just needed you safe.

My Tei, Oh Tei....

I’ve been writing everything about you. And how much I want the world to know you. And I would mourn for you.

I Love You as much as You Kept Your Safe Distance.

I can’t say more at first, but wait ‘till I adjust. I’ll let anyone know how miserable love can be sometimes.

But, don’t worry... I’ll make it a great thing to read, Tei

And remmember how much I always will be willing to sacrifice something for you.

I’ll cherish you.

Wait and live just for you.

I know... I was the guy who led the marriage. The priest who made you exchanges vow with a woman you never knew.

I was sorry.

And always be.

Truly waiting (and yours),

Andrew.
