A/N:

Kahoko.

I'm deeply sorry. I had no choice; I'll be back, I swear.

I already apologized to my parents and Mijako-san; they both have forgiven me. I usually don't apologize for my actions but only you can convince me. And I thank you for that.

I went away only for one thing: I had to let you go.

You need someone who can be at your side without having to hurt you or who could be with you effortlessly. But that's the problem with me, having to be with you; I need to exert so much effort. But once I'm with you, it's so worth it. Once you're in my arms, I don't ever want to let you go. Different kinds of feelings are coming to me... overwhelming me with things that I can't describe.

Kahoko Hino, you can hate me all you want. I understand. Even right now as I write this letter, I can almost imagine your tears stain this sheet of paper. I don't ever want you to cry, please don't. I know I'm hurting you to the extent of hating me and by all means, I do deserve that hate.

I love you and that's the most stupid excuse I can ever make.

But I do have one selfish request; I hope that somehow deep down inside of you, the Kahoko I know supports my decisions when it comes to music. She told me one time, that she was happy for my trip to Venice. I thank you for that too.

I love you too much that I can't hold you in one place.

They say, if you love someone so much; You let them go.

Len.
