A lot has happened, and I have not the time to even sleep or eat let alone speak with you, my dear friend.
But as my darling love rests beside me, I can spare a moment.
It was an unexpected, but no less delightful occurrence. Through the darkness and bleak troubles, a flower has bloomed. I was asked to attend a formal held by one of my best customers. I thought of no one else to accompany me than the woman I love. I fully expected her to decline.
She did not.
We decided to discuss the matter further, and I spirited her away to Feralas. It was there we spoke at great length, and I confessed to the emotional burden I had been carrying. I betrayed the promise to myself, knowing that I was very likely destroying our friendship.
But, this was not new, I have a tendency to turn to shit everything I care for.
But, she smiled at me.
I declared that I desired no one else but her. I reached into my chest and pulled out my heart, warm, barely alive, and gasping for air. She took it into her hands gently.
We decided we were to be together, and at least see what happens. I am... terrified.
I realize that my life is a jumble of chaos. She may become overwhelmed and leave me. I would not blame her.
I have yet to touch her or kiss her. I do not wish to ruin this, as I have done to everything else.
I hear her breath, rising and falling as she quietly sleeps. I write with one arm as one is hooked around her waist. Her head rests on my shoulder. I know heaven.
Yours truly,
--Kiaphus
