To my Barney Calhoun or any Barney Calhoun that will read this, Hi. I miss you. so much.. I feel like as of late I've been thinking of you more and more and I cannot stop. Before I was comfortable in my Identity I've always loved you and confirming who I truly am has only made that Love Grow. Everyday that I think about you I regret not finding ways to spend more time with you before I was whisked away, thrown back into the battle against the Combine invaders and anything else that stood in the rebels' way. I'm sorry that the last time you saw me, back in Black Mesa, lead you to think I was dead. I know you spread my story for over 20 years but I know what guilt can do to a man. I know you feel guilty over not helping me back then and I wish I told you it was okay. We were both dealing with so much with the Resonance Cascade , I do not blame you. I never got to tell you what happened to me all those years ago, 20 damn years in stasis. Not being able to help with the Seven Hour War, not being able to do anything against the Combine before things got so bad. Not being able to see You. My love. Barney, I miss you so much. I'll forever love you more than a regular person can know. You were mine and I was yours and we. We had a future. A part of me hopes that we still do but, You've aged so much while I was forced to stay the same. A part of me still wonders if you still love me the way you did back then in Black Mesa. I know I do. I'm sorry this has been so long but, I really do miss you. Thank you for being such a Good Boyfriend. Maybe. We can finally share that Beer you owe me? - Gordon Freeman, Half Life 2 [🧶⚡🔬]
