"A Letter"

Sweet messages written by my classmates before I transferred school.

Me and Ainnah during PE Festival.

When I was a little child I thought friends around me were for a lifetime bond. Seeing them everyday raised the level of comfort in me especially when I was with my classmates and close friends. I felt pleased and excited especially during bonding moment with them after school days and sem-breaks ☺️. But as I got older I realized that people around us would come and go, and even ourselves may stay or leave for a reason.

Well, I have to leave my old school to stay for good in Tabuelan Cebu with God's mercy and grace. My bff Ainnah was upset upon knowing it. She sobbed a lot not just for a short while. Even in the days left before our year-end party, she still cried when in random discussion it was indeliberately talked about. Thus, we missed not every chance given to be together with my other classmates.

Hanging around, most of the time in Don Macchiatos and or in Sebu Cha by alternate, since those were the only places nearer to our residences and school. With those moments before holiday breaks, my parents' approval was I grateful for ☺️.

Our party came in and I was surprised to know that she orchestrated to have my classmates make a message for me on a paper. That's when my tears fell telling mama about it. Below are their sweet and touchy messages.

THEIR LETTERS FOR ME

It was funny to recall that there were times when Ainnah and I had a misunderstanding. She would write a message in a torn portion of a paper asking for an apology so as I. Despite those circumstances sometimes we Know each other that we got our backs on.

Though we are far from each other we still keep in touch through online messages, updating each other's lives especially about school.

Old friends who stay true are rare as gold, while new friends who accept your identity are a treasure hidden in different personalities. Some are funny, who bring resounding laughter in the circle. Others are serious but strive to be there for you when you need a companion.

All of them are "keeps" of life to treasure especially those friends who inspire you to come closer to God. The latter is really incomparable.

Each of us has a message to write on a blank sheet of paper about some experiences so hard to forget. And those words that we are about to scribe are dependent on the kind of friends you have chosen. Nevertheless, whoever they are, and whatever encounters we have, those will complete your story on how you make each moment spent with them become momentous.
