Like in the fairytale, I used to believe you're the reason why flowers flourish so brightly whenever we walk past the garden and why crickets come out at night to conduct and orchestrate beautiful night time symphonies. Pierce said it's because they're mating but no, to me, you're the reason for it. It's not that I don't agree with this anymore now as I mention. I still do. Just that I wanna be more realistic. Screw the love story of Adam n Eve. Simply put, you're the reason why I look forward to my everyday. My vision for the future is getting all the more sharper ever since I entrusted my happiness in your hands. We always want to sweep away the sorrows and welcome more happiness in our lives- and for our surrounding people as well, although both sorrows and happiness constitute to a better relationship. Any love isn't perfect just because there is no quarrel or unhappiness involved. People might comment that young relationships are usually very sweet at the beginning- the honeymoon period. I don't deny this, but we do get into tiffs occasionally, too. I still remember there were two times I shouted really loudly my chest hurt so bad I couldn't breathe, and probably the maddest moment I ever encountered throughout my years since a baby. These signs are because: I care for you. Frankly speaking, as compared to the past where your temper was literally tantamount to a bull's, you are so much better now. You're right; no one is totally to blame whenever in a quarrel because it takes two hands to clap. But honestly I feel that out of ten times of unhappiness, six times are due to my unbearable mood and temper. You're the most patient boyfriend to me

I have never had someone else out of my family treating me this way. Whenever I get quiet or slightly retarded, you know it's either because I'm hungry or tired. You always put me as your first priority; rushing to get food for me, and adjusting the passenger seat to a lying position and insisting I close my eyes till we reach home else I won't get this or that. It is so not for me cos I can't stay still for more than a few minutes. I'd open my eyes a little to glance at you or look out to the scenery but you always caught me. Everyday at home, you'd be like "baby have you bathed? at least take a fast one cos you interact with a lot of germsxxx today", "stop walking here n there, quick come sit here with me, I wash your wounds and apply lotion", "now I want you to do something, promise? go have a nap till 7pm n we go walk walk after dinner!". Mom would always say you treat me like a baby. You'd come over and pat my head, adding that I'd always be one. It's silly, but I love it still. Most of the time, I sing or dance to the flow of the music and I'd catch you smiling sweetly. However clumsy or dumb I might seem, I was still glad I made you happy. Everyday while you drive, I irritate and bombard you with so many questions. I never got tired of it. You remember all my favorite colors, always. White, navy blue, ferrari red, yellow, green, black, gray. You name them all anyway

I smile a lot, I laugh more, but I cry often too. When I unload all the unhappiness in my heart to you. When I told you this novel still makes me cry and depressed each time I read it. When I tear while you play my late grandpa's fave song. When I cried after my open wounds were knocked onto, or when I couldn't take the pain. When I got so sad over that big white husky that passed away due to suffocation. When I cried a river after getting my bad results. When I feel like sobbing out of a sudden over nothing and I couldn't shake it off. You're always there. Your shoulders were always so nice, your voice's ever so comforting. Happiness is only real when we share it. One moment I could be laughing, and the next I could be all obdurate and expressionless. Face it, it's the mood swing. Hey I'm a girl, of cause it runs in me at times. But you always emphasize that not all things are about me anymore, it already has become for the both of us. Indeed, whenever I get solemn, your mood changes like the tides as well. We each have our own different preferences, but the opposites attract, no? I wouldn't say we are completely two diverse homo sapiens and it's fate that brought us together wtv bullshit, don't start about it. But our differences are evident enough. I hate pork and love fish 'n vege while you don't. I read and write, while you speak a hell lot. I enjoy changing bedsheets while you don't. You like coffee with lots of sugar and thick powder, while I just like pure black and bitter coffee

I don't like it when you got duties to serve. I know I should be content with what I have; having your company at least 5 hours everyday. Most days we spend 12 hours together, some days 24hours. I love it especially when we get out of Singapore; idyllic life. But whenever you have got duty, I could only occupy myself with reading, writing, or eating. The food I eat don't even taste as nice as when you're around. My mom doesn't behave like herself when you don't appear too. She'd just mop the floor and show a grumpy face to my daddy. But your existence makes a whole new difference. She would laugh all day long, and I'm truly pleased with this fact. People either love us, or hate us. It was never about "that so-so couple". Like Jack, he said we always appear so happy, and so we must last foreverrr~~ he added with "name your son after me". It feels really warm in the heart, to know that people love us being together. If not, it isn't a barrier to our relationship either. The whole world could hate us for all I care, but it's you and me against the world! There are a million other things I could talk about you but let us just leave it for the next time. There are plenty of chances. All I want to tell you is that I love you, and will always do. I miss you, very much
