x━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛Hello. I know it has been some time. Quite sometime actually. A couple years since we've last seen each other, to say the least. I know, I know. You probably don't want to hear from me right now, but just... hear me out. Please. Three minutes is all and you'll never remember this or me again after. I want to get this all off my chest. I need to get this off my chest. It has been eating me alive since the day it happened...
I never meant to hurt you.
The look of sheer horror and pain in your eyes that once had held so much tender love and joy. That pain filled scream that left your mouth. It haunts my dreams even to this day. A plague that manifested in my mind, consuming what joy I had and nestling in the back of my mind like a parasite. I could feel my heart stuck in my throat that day. Every thump shook my head as the world began to spin. Ever since I blinded you in the ring, I never could face another competitor. No... I dare not injure anyone else. I could not bring myself to even come near that veryring that had caused you to leave my life. Not after that. Not after the nights we spent together as you healed, you begging for me to leave. You couldn't trust me any longer. I don't blame you. You trusted me beforehand... and I took your sight.
I hurt you and I didn't mean to do such a thing. I never dreamed of hurting you before. I saw us together as friends until the day we grew old. You were my closest friend. My only true friend. The one who had cared about me more than anyone ever could. We were like sisters, you and I. But now it is like we never even known each other. Your eyesight was barely saved in one eye, leaving you blind in the other. You barely acknowledge me anymore... and... and I'm okay with that. You deserve a friend who wouldn't hurt you. One that would do anything to fight to have you trust them again. I didn't. I left when you needed me the most.
I'm so sorry...
I just want you to know that I am so proud of the cow you have become. You have a family that adores you like you are their sun, moon, and stars. You are not a force to be reckoned with. I want you to know that while I cannot return to you the eyesight that I took away from you so briskly, you have truly become an inspiration. I wish you the best in your years and I hope that you find true friends. Ones that will not harm you in the ways you have. And... I want you to know that I've changed. I'm not the same rough and tough fighter you knew me as. Because of you, I picked up astronomy and poetry. Something you cherished deeply but cannot enjoy so much anymore. Because of... me. I'm so sorry.
Goodbye, my old friend. I enjoyed our earlier years together and I pray you have found your true eternal joy.
apologies for how long this took! I've been on a trip and I expected to have some time to go on my computer, but that hasn't been the case (as proven by my monopoly game that went until 2:30 am last night lmao)
I'm happy to announce juice box. as the winner!
I really liked how eloquent your prompt response was, and it was kind of cool to see the progression in the piece!
I will also give vivere! a shout out as well, if there was something I could give you as a reward I would, unfortunately the system isn't set up yet /bricked
thank you everyone for entering and best of luck in your future competitions! <3
