The Ties That Bind Us

Sora Takenouchi thinks she's extremely lucky.

Of course I wouldn't blame her since it's complete luck that we met and complete luck that she's my girlfriend instead of some other fan-driven maniac.

It is. It's luck.

But, Sora's not the lucky one. In fact, it's rather the opposite.

I have never dreamt one night when I didn't adknowledge the fact that I was so goddamned happy. I was so goddamned luck to have this wonderful girl who loves me for who I am, for my flaws and for my perfections. To have this girl that I know better than she knows herself and to have this girl who knows me better than I know myself.

Just to have her.

It's pure, sheer, luck. And it drives me crazy to think where I would be if she wasn't mine? Where I would be if she wasn't the one who was my girl? If I had some nappy-ass girl like June... okay... so maybe June's over-obsessive but she's not nappy. I'm just biast because I know Sora's perfect.

Okay, I'm joking. Ha ha. Sora's not perfect, she's just my girl. And I can't explain her in any other way but Sora because she's like a gift from a God who seems like he turned his back on us, but he didn't. He couldn't have if he gave me a girl like Sora because Sora is that great. Sora is that wonderful and I'd be that angry if Sora belonged to someone else.

... If she was someone else's 'claim.'

I wonder sometimes, what if she had gotten with someone like Jyou? Or Taichi? Or ... or.. Koushirou? These things make me wonder, what type of hell I'd be in and how some other guy must feel since I'm the one who has Sora, not them

Ha ha ha. Yeah, I'm the one who has Sora. Not them. I think I _should_ feel somewhat sorry for them since they don't have this wonderful girl by their side while I have Sora all the time. Yeah, I'm real lucky.

It's one thing to be lucky having Sora, but it's another to actually having happiness in these future days. I know, it's just strange, the God that must be there is shining his light on me, a lot. I mean, whoever has this wonderful girl for keeps has God's blessings because .. I mean, just look at her.

Sora is so ... goddamned wonderful.

And I've never been so happy. Happiness just pursues through our relationship as it gets longer and longer and wider and bigger and anything of the sort.

I'm so glad.

Each day is better than the other day and each day is burned into my memory because each day is that good.

I don't believe there is a 'bad' day when you're with Sora because she makes every day special. She makes every day have a meaning and she makes every single goddamned day wonderful. She gives meaning in the word 'life' and she gives the power to move on when you feel anything bad.

But I don't feel anything bad because I'm so enamoured with Sora.

So I've decided, I know exactly what keeps us together.

Either it's God who's pretty goddamned happy with me even though I always say goddamned (I must have done something good), or it's that sheer luck.

I'd prefer the God if I believed in god.

So I tend to believe it's luck.
