dearest k.

i miss you. i miss my best friend, my heart, my soulmate. too many things have happened without you and i can’t stand it. i want to talk to you about everything that’s happened in my life, and i am desperate to hear about yours.

my dad sold our childhood home, almost died, and now he has a girlfriend. i haven’t properly processed any of this and you’re the only person i want to talk to about it.

i’m scared for you. i’m scared of what’s happening in your country and how you’re handling it. i’m scared i will never hear from you again, and i’m scared that one day you will reach out to me. but one fear is worse than the other and i would give anything to have you back again.

forever yours,

e.

dear k.

good morning darling. it’s that time of day where we share a date across hemispheres. your friday is just beginning, mine is ending in heartache as i think of you getting ready to be the kindest, gentlest soul for another day.

i’ve started a new book and the premise is cool but the pacing is weird and it’s a shadow of what it could be. i would love to hear your thoughts and theorise with you; you’re so insightful and so empathetic that you see more than i do.

there are so many movies and books i want to share with you. stories of love and danger and grief and hope.

every time i see more news from your country i can feel my heart breaking for you. i hope you and your family safe. i would give away a kidney just to know that you’re safe and okay.

i love you.

yours always, e.
