Dear Omar,
Since hearing your story about you writing letters, it has made me want to write one to you, rather then emailing or telling you over msn or phone. I’ve always enjoyed writing letters but jus never really had much time. Anyway… cut to the chase.
I know we’ve had our arguments and I’m sorry if I had done anything wrong. I’m jus a person who, if I’m waiting for someone for too long to reply or something I get impatient.
It’s true what people say about me, I’m weird. Sometimes I don’t know what it is that I myself wants from life. All my life I’ve been trying to be a perfect friend and daughter and I know I lost track of the real me. To be honest I jus don’t care, because knowing that I can make others happy, I will be truly happy myself. Im easy to deal with when I get pissed off, its either the person jus nicely backs out the conversation or doesn’t take it to the heart what I say cos at times, I get sick of pleasing what other want that I end up wanting attention of my own. In other words, this is complicated. So forgive me if u don’t understand a word I’m writing here.
I don’t know if Jenny has told you anything. But I basically have been kicked out of the trip to London for her and your birthday.
I have Sunday Mandarin courses and her 2nd cousin happens to be in my class. She asked if I was going n I told her how I wasn’t sure and in the end she convinced me to go. It got to the stage where I got talking about my life story. About how Jenny and I distanced… Jenny came online the night after, without a clue in my head I asked her: I and Afrooz were wondering if the theme didn’t have to all be pirates. Then she turned around and told me how she thought it was best I didn’t go. At first I thought she was joking. I asked y. she sed I had been slagging her and her best mates off behind her back. How the whole Moubeen thing she had forgiven and forgotten but I still bought it up to spread.
She deleted me off Facebook. ‘blocked’ in other words. I told her my last words, how I was sorry if I caused any problem how I didn’t meant for things to turn this way. I really didn’t think she would take it to heart. And promised her I will leave her alone for good for life.
I sat at my computer for 2hrs straight. And at this moment I still am sat here. 2.14am… these past couple of hours I asked myself: what have I done?
Why does all my plans have to ruin? I dreamt of the days where I was just an innocent virgin girl. Where I had a boyfriend who wasn’t just about sex and lies. The daughter who obeyed every rule and the friend who everyone could confide in, appreciate and rely on.
Sometimes I ask myself. If I hadn’t made all them mistakes in the past would I not be spending most my time away from home so I don’t have to be alone.
Jus to make things less awkward for Jenny I decided to delete Kim and Chris too. We never talked anyway so loosing them didn’t really matter. The thought of Jenny doing this to me, I really don’t know.
Then it hit me, Omar hasn’t texted me or come online for 2 days. Did Jenny tell you what happened between me and her? Did that put you off wanting to remain friends with me? I was given two chances to remain friends with her. But both times I blew it. I don’t know HOW but maybe me and Jenny can never be friends again.
Omar… writing letters to someone is so easy, I find it way better to speak my mind.
I don’t know, whether you want to remain friends. I don’t want to make things awkward for you and Jenny by talking to me. I really don’t know what to do cos I treasure u in my heart as a really good friend.
Omar, you were the next best thing that came into my life. You showed me laughter, fun time, trust and everything I could ask for in a guy. Im damn sure gonna miss you. I wont show it, but you’d know I’m missing ya.
And don’t wry, from this moment onwards, you will not hear from Sze Li. She has never existed in past and will not in you future. Thank you for all you done for me done far.
Take care and goodnight xx
(I’ts 2.38am and I spent over 2hrs tryna writing this letter. Damn its hard)
