Two Years Later

Dear Nana,

It's been two years now, since I'd gotten my surgery and since then, I've been living life to the fullest. I'm nineteen now and I'm surrounded by friends! I'll tell you about them, Nana, I'm sure if you were here, you'd love them too.

Rose is the one who underwent surgery with me. She's so brave and strong. Without her, I don't know if I would still be living today. Whenever I see her, I smile knowing that she is the reason I am so happy. She's a great friend and she's been teaching me how to cook!

Jade visits me a lot and we play video games. It's a lot of fun! Last time she came over, we played for hours and made a lot of snacks. There was cookies, popcorn, ice-cream, pop… So much food I couldn't eat while I was sick! It's a lot of fun to have her around. She reminds me of a little puppy sometimes, haha.

I've become a lot closer with my dad since my recovery. Before then, we couldn't do much together because I was never able to leave the house when I was home. The most I ever did with him was watch a movie or two before falling asleep… Now, we do everything and we make it as fun as possible! Since I've recovered, he's been baking a lot. Remember how he used to do that? He bakes so many cakes that they're practically covering the kitchen! I wonder if I'll ever get sick of them… But it makes him so happy and I'm glad he can smile again.

There are even people I've met in the hospital that I've become good friends with! They've gotten out too, and every so often, I'll call them or they'll call me and we'll go out to a movie or play some video games. It's a lot of fun! There's Karkat, who's really angry all the time, but he's really funny too. There's Vriska, who I think might have a crush on me! And of course, I can't forget all that Ms. Lalonde has done for me. She's been so sweet and every week she comes over to have tea with my dad and check up on me. He seems to enjoy her company, too.

Oh, Nana, there's one more person I'd like to talk to you about too…

John sighed, content as he finished his entry to his late grandmother. Every week, he would write her a letter, hoping that maybe she would hear him wherever she was.

"John, you coming?" a call from downstairs caused him to jolt up.

"Yeah, I'll be right down," he called back, grinning ear to ear. He gave his room a once over, making sure everything was placed right. Posters of his favorite movies and actors placed around the walls, a bunny rabbit that he willingly put back in its box and old letters to his grandmother on top of his desk. He was happy the way things were.

"John," the person called again, chuckling, "you dozing off or something?"

John let out a little laugh. "No, I'm coming, Dave!"

That's right. His name's Dave and I think, next to my dad, he's the single most important person in the world to me. He's kind, gentle and has a great imagination. Even though he's suffered through things in the past, he doesn't let it consume him. I think we're similar there. We keep each other up by keeping ourselves up.

Dave and I are nearly always together and time I spend with him is the best time in the world. He tells me all the time how happy he is that I'm well and that he can see me smile because seeing me smile makes him smile.

I really like Dave's smile.

What do you think, Nana? If you were here, you'd love him, I know it. Can you see him down there waiting in the kitchen? He's probably tapping his finger on the table while he waits. It's a habit, but that's okay.

I still love him.
