Dear Mr. Low Point,
We meet again. It’s been two years since the last time we fully faced each other but yet I still see your face sometimes. Only you knew how badly it affected me, or maybe you didn’t because I was so good at hiding my emotions. But now it is time. To let you hear everything I have to say.
I still remember that day, EXACTLY how it happened. I remember the call, the tears, and the conversation. You were selfish, you didn’t think of your consequences. You didn’t just break her, you broke me. I remember thinking “This can’t be true. I must be having a nightmare.” You made me go from trusting everyone to trusting no one, and thinking everyone I met or knew was gonna betray me in a given moment. You didn’t just affect me mentally and emotionally but also physically. You made me want to hate things that I used to love. I would be lying if I said I got my full sense of trust back, I didn’t. It is still difficult to completely trust someone, however it is getting easier. But you still come around, I see you. I am proud to say that you did not break me, and you never did and you never will. I am still here, still standing with my head held high. I’m sure you thought I was not going to be the same, and I’m not. However, after we faced each other I changed. You made me grow up. This letter is not to bash you, it is to say thank you. Thank you for teaching to appreciate the people I love. You made me appreciate my mom, brother, friends, and aunt. Those were the people who actually cared about me, and are always there for me when I need their help in anything. Also, I want to thank you for making me become stronger. During this time, I had to be strong, not only for myself, but also for my family. I had to be their shoulder. This made me stronger. I am now able to handle difficulties easier. I can now calmly think about situations and come up with a resolution. You were a blessing in disguise. I wouldn’t be the person I am today if it wasn’t for you. Like I said, I see you trying to creep up, and that is okay. Like I said, Im stronger. So, come if you want, but this time, I’ll be ready.
Sincerely, A bettered version Rebecca
