An Open Letter For My Best Friend
It’s been decades I haven’t seen you. I guess that’s on me. My mind is completely messed up lately.
I don’t know if I missed our old good days. I just feel numb for everything right now. (I know I’m a douchebag. Lol.)
But the sure thing is, those days were not something I plan to erase in my history.
Why? Because simply, you’re my best friend.
Someome I know who’s very selfless and corrected me in a very pleasant way without judging me personally. The person who always listens to my rant, my muble jumble thoughts, diving deep into something nonsense even for hours. Someone who’s mad into problematic system in a very adorable way.
If I were Plato, well, you’re my Socrates. Ew, okay.
Anyway, I can’t forget when we woke up and had a prayer in so early morning and ended it in the midday just for talking random things. And still, it still felt not enough.
I can’t forget the good warm feeling when I’m on the passenger seat, having heavier weight, and you ride our motorcycle across cities together and without planning just killing time together to stay sane.
I can’t forget the heartfelt feeling when we just sat by the beach just watching sunset and walk the talk until it’s dark.
I can’t forget when you missed the train in our middle of trip in Yogyakarta because of the silliest reason. And you got no money and your phone was still in the train.
I can’t forget we just need to walk 200 meters to our intern office. We had lived together almost 24/7.
And no matter how different our perspective today, I’m not me if i hadn’t met you in the past. You took a lot of part in my life. You’re my inspiration. And I’m grateful for having you as my best friend and my teacher of life.
And I’m still the same person. Irritating and self-absorbed. I hope you won’t be mad because of that. Lol.
But anyway. Today I just wanna say, happy birthday to you. I hope you’ll be blessed by contentment in your life 💛
Lots of love
your cringiest friend,
Reni
