Dear Ridwan,
You're so in love. You love her so much that you wouldn't want to lose her. You even stayed late in school to wait for her to finish her remedial lessons. You lied to your parents, who know nothing about your relationship, saying that you're having remedial of your own when you're not. You waited at the canteen with your cliques celebrating your advanced birthday and you're so delighted! However she's not there. She's not there not because of the remedial lessons but she went home straight after that without telling you. Oh! She did. Texting. So sincere.
Come on Ridwan. Don't be naive and blinded by love. You said Its okay. You kept quiet and left for home and after that no more news or text from her.

You sent her a morning message. But she replied hours later. And she said she just woke up. Okay. You accepted her lame reason. Who wakes up at 4pm in the evening given the fact that she's a student and doesn't have to work night shift or something?
You waited and waited hoping she will keep the conversation going. You typed a question and ponder on whether to send the message or not. Come on use your brain. She's not in her how-you-used-to-know-her-a-year-ago self. She's trying to avoid you. Can't you tell? Wake up Ridwan! Wake up from your dreams! Face the harsh reality.

She wished you happy birthday. You smiled. But not the first thing in the morning. Neither when the clock struck 12am last night. But in the afternoon. How you wish she's the first to wish. But she didn't. And you still smiled. Thinking about the relationship and how you thought she still loves you. And that was the first and her last text for that day. Open your eyes Ridwan. Use your brain to think. She's bound to leave you. And she did.
With love,
Syed Ridwan
P/S: I miss you
