it's so interesting how blankets only have 4 corners until the very moment you try to untangle them because the stupid tag is in your face and suddenly they have an infinite amount of corners. anything is possible except for getting the blanket straightened out. what's that about.

Minase, we promised to write each other letters on our birthdays. I think you’ll probably read this letter, so it’ll never be sent. I probably won’t even get a reply. But it’s okay because there’s only one thing I want to say in this letter. I’m glad I got to be your friend. If I hadn’t met you, I’d probably have hated myself for the rest of my life. Spending time with you made me want to be a better person for the first time. You’re very different from me and seem too special for me. So it makes me think you’re great. You being you makes me want to be the person worthy of you. Thank you for making me feel that way. I actually don’t want to go to another school. I want to be with you forever. But that’s my own selfishness. When you’re with me, bad things happen. You’re better off without me. Sad as this is, it’s how I see it. I wanted to smile and greet you for the last time, but did I give you a good smile?

I probably already knew that I liked you. But if I said it out loud, I felt you’d stay away from me, so I was afraid. I think after this, I may want to see you again. No matter how long it’ll be, I’ll always want to see you.

So take care of yourself. I wish you happiness.
