Chapter 5 (The letter)
Rinoa woke up in her bed and saw that it was already night time. I must have fallen
asleep. Rinoa opened up her bedside table drawer to take her necklace and found an
envelope inside. "What's this?" Rinoa muttered, "I didn't remember writing a letter or anything." She took out the
envelope and looked at the back. It said Rinoa and it was in Squall's handwriting. "Squall!" Rinoa screamed,
eagerly opening up the letter and taking the contents in her hands. This is what the letter said.
Dear Rinoa,
When you find this letter, I'll be gone. I know that you will understand my reason, but I cannot tell you. One thing's for sure, this is all to make you happy. I know you'll be wondering how, but, I can never tell you how. If I tell you, It'll make you look for me and take action. I don't want that. You have to stay safe. Not only you, but everyone else. Please don't look for me, or have anyone else do. They'll all fall into danger because of me. And that's exactly why I left. To prevent from putting danger upon you and everyone else.
I'm so sorry Rinoa. I know you're gonna hate me for this. If you already do, I understand. I just left and couldn't give you a reason. But even if you don't understand, please just know, that this is all for your happiness. Maybe it's better this way, being apart. No one will ever have to be mad at me. But whatever you do, please find another person to love. We can't love each other like this, and you'll just be depressed. I will be too. Find a good person, a handsome one, smart, has a good attitude. Find a person opposite to what I was like to you in the beginning. Selfish and self centered, and of course uncaring. I know you can do that, and I know you can forget about me. If you do, I'll be very happy for you and myself.
But, that does not mean I do not love you. I love you, always. My heart will never change. And though I cannot expect to get your love in return, I will still not change my heart.
Please forgive me,
Squall Leonhart
Rinoa stared at the letter and read it over and over again. Looking for hidden meanings, secret messages, trying
to find Squall's reason. She couldn't. Rinoa sobbed. How can this possibly make me happy now? And what
do you mean find another man to love? I can't betray you! I won't! I promise you Squall, my heart will
also not change. I'll love you even if that love is not returned. Squall please, why did you leave, I can
never be happy without you! Rinoa took the letter again and flipped it over. She noticed there was a message at
the back. "Another message!" Rinoa exclaimed and wiped out her tears. She took it eagerly and read it.
Just one more thing. I have a present for you. Use it well. You'll find it. As long as you remember our promise. I'm so sorry, and goodbye. Squall
Rinoa wiped up her tears once more and put on a straight face. Our promise. The flower field. "I'll be there
Squall…" Rinoa got up and left the room with a high hope. I'm going to the flower field.
