saturday - 2 a.m.

nick came to my house today. he shoved a bunch of envelopes into my hands and didn't say a word. he didn't need to.

i ran back up to my room and opened them. inside were letters, from you.

i read them one by one. it's funny because i did two things i usually don't do today;

one was to read and the other was to cry.

i cried harder than i ever have when i read your last letter to me. but you know aidey, even if you made me cry, i felt better after all of it. and from what you've said i know that you don't feel good-at all. i want to make you feel better. so maybe i thought it was my turn to write you letters.

i hope you feel better after reading them all.

i love you.
