Thanks for Being There

Quistis, you've done so much for me these past months. There aren't enough words to express
my gratitude, and how can I ever be able to thank you enough for the things you've done for me?
You tried your hardest to reach out to me, to be there when Sis couldn't be. I never took you up
on your offer, but now when I look back, I realize how grateful I am to you for always having an
available shoulder to lean upon.
You trusted me, confided in me, opened up your heart to me, and when I acted like a total prick
in return, your expression never faltered. You just calmly told me that I didn't have to hide my
feelings and that it was okay to talk about them.
It took me a long time before I realized how much you actually sacrificed for me. You loved me
and continued to care about me, no matter how much I pushed you away or ended up hurting
you. And then, you put aside your own feelings so that you could help me realize that I love
Rinoa. You gave me the happiness that I don't deserve, and gave up your love so that I could
have that happiness. You aren't just a friend. You're my best friend and my guardian angel. If it
wasn't for you, I wouldn't be where I am right now.
Thanks for being there.
