FLASHBACK

His room was lit only by a small desk lamp. The only noise was that of a scribbling pen and the gust of wins. A loud noise soon erupted outside, but Matt paid no attention to it. The room was getting real warm, so he decided to open the window. On the other side of the room, there was a young lady sleeping there. It was Sora, his lover, his guardian angel.


"Dear Sora,
I 'm leaving tonight for California. My Father's close friends have been killed in a car accident, and I am going to attend the funeral there. Dad wishes that I would stay with their daughter for a few months, to help her adjust to her lost and to help her take care of her son. Hopefully, I'll be able to come back to see you soon. Keep in touch, I'll be back soon. I Love you.
Forever yours,
Matt "


He pulled the drawer out and sealed the letter in an envelope. Matt placed the letter next to the lamp on the desk. He gave his love a gentle kiss on the forehead and left the room.

A Gust of wind blew into the window, and the envelope was thrown under the bed. Sora woke up the next morning to find her lover gone. She checked everywhere for him, and called his job to ask where he was. That night she cried to sleep, thinking that he had left her.

Flashback to another point in time

"Dear Sora,
Why haven't you answered my letters? I just got back from California. I've missed you so much. I want to see you soon. Meet me in the park next week at eight. I want to see how much you've change, probably as beautiful as ever. I want to talk to you, we haven't talked in a while. I sent you my phone number in one of my past letters, but you never called. Every time I would call, no one would answer. I would sit there for hours, thinking that you forgot about me, that you moved on. It hurt...but then I realized you loved me. Well I'm gonna find a job for Christine, I'll try to call you later.
Forever yours,
Matt"

"Could you do me a favor? I gotta get going, I'm gonna be late for the rehearsal for the next concert. Can you put this letter in the mailbox?"

The girl turns around with her baby in her arms. She smiles. "Sure". She takes the letter from Matt and puts it on the table. "Thanks Christine" Matt quickly gets dressed and leaves.

Christine quickly opens the letter and starts reading. She puts the letter back into the envelope and rips it into pieces. This wasn't the first time she had done this. She wanted Matt to be hers, and she would do it at all costs. She just didn't know that Matt was already engaged to someone.
