Chapter 3: 'C' is for Cardigan
Hello Kyoya. Didn't have to wait too long for this one, did you? Kyoya was scowling at the letter. He'd gotten it this morning, just hours after the last one, and after a sleepless night wondering both about what 'C' would be, and who the boys around Gabriella were. What he'd finally noticed though, was that none of the letters had a return address, which meant someone had to be hand-delivering them. This letter was no different.
You're quick Kyoya, so I'll let you know that these are delivered by a friend of mine. Not an Host Club member, because I'm sure they'd have already told everyone that I'd gotten in contact with them.
By the way, you may now be wondering, 'am I the only one she's sending these to?' The answer is yes. No one else even knows if I'm even alive, let alone making contact or sending you letters. This is just for you Kyoya.
Kyoya refused breakfast, taking the letter to work. Once he finally had a break, he settled down in his office to read the letter.
'C' stands for cardigan. That was the first gift you ever gave to me. A cardigan specially designed for me, well that's what I thought. This cardigan was the only thing I never forget whenever I leave the house. It was precious because it came from you.
That cardigan has my precious memories in it. I brought it to Switzerland when we went there for a vacation, I wear it when I feel cold and I kept it safe where no one can touch it.
The cardigan that you gave me was long forgotten. I remember leaving it in your coach and never finding it again. Inside the cardigan's pocket was a precious picture to me, so if you ever find it please give it back.
A gift is something you can never replace, you can replace it but I will never be the same. That's why I want my cardigan back Kyoya.
Twenty-three letters left. Can you guess what 'D' will be?
-Gabriella
Kyoya chuckled at the demand for her cardigan. He has it of course she left it in his coach after all. It was in his closet at the moment, where he'd kept it the past few years, hoping to give it back. Gabriella had never returned though, and until now, the cardigan had lain forgotten in his closet.
Putting aside his work, a growing habit that happened once the letters showed up, he found the cardigan. It was red; with Gabriella's name sewed in the breast pocket. Gabriella had been so happy after getting the cardigan, and always took it with her.
He browsed the cardigan and found a picture sticking out of a pocket. Gabriella was right that cardigan held a lot of her memories. He looked at the picture and froze, it was a Polaroid picture of him and her, they were laughing freely at something and it looks like it was captured when neither of them was looking. He saw a hand written message below the picture "Your love is all I need to feel complete."
Kyoya paused at the picture, a moment he remembered too well. The reason they were laughing was because of Tamaki's foolishness. He had never seen Gabriella laugh so freely ever since he met her, just thinking of it made him a bit jealous.
Kyoya shook his head. He can't be jealous of Tamaki because of Gabriella, there was no reason to feel jealous after all.
After thinking thoroughly Kyoya smirked, he already knew what 'D' stands for.
