Tohru-kun
You better not let anyone read this...
Where should I begin? Should I begin with it's because of you, Tohru that I can smile genuinely? Is it because of you I've stopped being so selfish?
I know I haven't been with you through all of your troubles although you've given me so much more than I could imagine repaying you...I hope that made some sense.
However, despite my selfishness, I am truly thankful and very blessed that you were always there to watch out for me. There is nothing I can express in words of how important you are to me. It's because of you I can live joyfully as Yuki Sohma. It may sound strange to you but there were so many things I hated about myself.
Funny, I can imagine you suddenly lecturing to me that I am the most wonderful person you have ever met. Has anyone ever called you healer? Because that's what you are, Tohru. You healed me, you've healed everyone's pain, you've healed the wounds and never thought of yourself in the process.
And it's funny too. Believe it or not (See? I'm being honest with you here like you told me to) I thought you had a motive for wanting to help us. I've always read it in literature where the healer is really a selfish person seeking for rewards or a manipulative user. They secretly have more personalities so they can get that trust and crush it. How silly I could have thought you were like that.
That's probably why I liked you so much, Tohru. See? I admitted it right there. If anyone ever harmed you, you come straight to me and I will destroy them.
(I'll even do that to Akito, I promise.)
Anyone who ever tells you that you're nothing more than what they say you are, they're wrong. Is that understood, Tohru? You deserve so much more and don't let anyone ever tell you you're any less.
To conclude, I'm thankful we're finally finishing up this hectic year.
I can't believe it took me a whole year to ask you this, but do you mind if we go out on another date again? Don't pretend you don't know. I'll be after you, Tohru.
Just kidding.
Much care,
Yuki Sohma
