A Love Letter

This should be the 4th day of 7 days writing challenges. But, I need to put some break after the 3rd day as I have another anxiety attack. Well, I’m better now, so, here it is! As like the posts before, I took this challenge as my way to learn how to write and enriched the characters in a book I currently write. Today’s topic is : A love letter from a fictional characters to another fictional character. It’s a letter from “Kevin” to “Kai”.


Dear Kai, 

Call me an old fashioned, but I love handwriting. So, here I am, writing you a letter.

To be honest, it's been a while to not writing a letter to someone. But, after our brief first meeting yesterday, I felt the urge to write a letter again. To you, definitely.

So, Kai Xavier, right? Congrats on the winning! It's just a small queer tennis tournament, I know. But it made me meeting you and owing you a dinner, which...I can't wait for!🙂

I know I should've just called you, or texted you. But I'd like to tell you something before we have the dinner. Something I think that has to be written.

I believe I have fallen for you, Kai Xavier.
I think I'm going to like you....a lot.
You have this kind of smile that brought lights. I can tell you're such a cocky guy, but you definitely are deserved to be, as I can also tell you're such a smart guy to talk with. For hours.
At least, it would be such a gift to have you as a friend.

I know it sounds creepy. Especially reading this from the guy who just met you in less than 24 hours. But, well, within these 24 hours, we've talked for total 53 minutes, exchanged numbers, texted hi to each other...I've cheered for you from the top of my lung, called you about 10 minutes for some silly reasons, and dropped this letter to the pretty gallery's manager who looked at me sharply and was, I believe, torn into two whether she should really give you my letter or not. Can't blame her though, I was so nervous you were going to suddenly appear and it would be embarrassing for sure. So yeah, a lot of things happened within these 24 hours. Funny how time flies, they said? I think they never felt such thing as "fall for someone in the first sight".

Anyway, again, I know you probably feel not comfortable with all this. Like I said, I just need to tell you about this feeling. Written.
If you feel it's inappropriate, I'll totally understand. Feel free to throw away this letter and block my number. Or.....probably just give me a chance to buy me a dinner that I owe you....

Call me?

Cheers,
Your loudest cheerleader,
Kevin Vásquez (Kev)
