My Zaira Leigh,
Hindi na ako nakatulog noong gabing iyon. I just hugged your pillow where you always lay your head on. All I could do was just replay all what you said to me. Naging lakas ko na ang marinig ang boses mo.
You will always be my strength and weakness.
Siguro kung hindi ko na kaya ang problema dito sa bahay at kung saan 'man... I will always take time to have a seat and calm my mind and imagine you say... "Kaya mo 'yan, Xander. Mahal kita." I want to hear those again. Ang ganda kasi ng boses mo, asawa ko. Nakakagaan ng loob.
Wife, when it comes to decision making, you were always the one who will always be on the right track. You taught me not to rush things. Dapat hindi nangunguna ang emosyon pagdating sa pag-de-desisyon. Palagi ko nang tinatandaan 'yan.
Sana talaga nandito ka sa tabi ko.
I always thank God for allowing you to be able to see me and have the precious time talking with you. Sinusulit ko ang mga nakaw na oras 'yon, Zaira.
--X.M. Del Valle
