Valentines day. I gave her a balloon rose and a short poem today. Saniya was soo excited when she saw me holding the gifts...

I felt happy.

After school ended, I asked her of her thoughts about the poem. She liked it, and I'm glad she did. It's the longest one I've ever made for someone. But she also clarified a detail with me. She has a boyfriend...

When she told me, I felt sad, but I hid it... I still felt sad as I walked home, but it stayed hidden, till my brother left the scene... I let it show... where no one can see...

I talked to myself, trying lighten up. It worked, half way. I guess only time can mend this...

I haven't felt this kind of sadness, ever. It's different from the depressed sadness I'm used to.

It's alright, I'm fine. This is actually better than I'd expect. Maybe I'm always ready for rejection every valentine's day. I'm ready to let go. I let go of Alyssa, I moved on from Aubrie, I'm friends with my old best friend... I can move on... I know I can...
