To: My Boyfriend’s Best Friend

From: His Girlfriend

Hi. Do you still remember me? I’m the girl he introduced to you when the both of us ran into each other at the mall. We shook hands awkwardly knowing that we are so close to the same person, yet we knew nothing of each other yet. 5 minutes later, we were bullying him together.

After you shared his series of embarrassing stories, he put his arms around me, saying “my beautiful girlfriend” repeatedly, showing to you how much I meant to him. God, I love him so much sometimes. Then you pouted, in which we all burst into laughter.

10 minutes into the conversation, we got so carried away with the teasing I think he almost cried. I still remember how your beautiful eyes squinted when you laughed, and the "sorry-not-sorry" expression on your aesthetically pleasing face. I wasn't worried that he'll snap out  at us, though, because I know one thing, even if we went too far, he couldn’t possibly hate the both of us. We were, in fact, his two favorite people in this world (aside from his own mother, of course).

I had a feeling, but as always, I ignored it. Like that time when my boyfriend was trying to be “practical” and only brought one backpack for a 3 day trip. I had a feeling that he would forget something. Well, he did forget his camera. We end up taking all the pictures with my phone.

You’re the one that meets him 5 days a week, right? If I needed to know anything about him I could easily ask you. Well, I guess I’m gonna start asking now. How has he been? Is he well? Has he been coming to school? Cause for the past month he hasn’t answer any of my calls, and was never home when I visited.

Is my love sad? Is he lonely? Does he need me? Answer when you have the time, okay?

Oh, and who gave you that flowers you posted on Instagram last week? The handwriting on the card seems a bit familiar. And, that selfie of the two of you­–yes, the one you posted on Path–when was that taken? Was it before or after he had disappeared from me?

I know he is a practical person, and a best-friend/lover in one person sounds practical to me.

But he would never do that, right?

Right?

Sincerely, me.
