The letters that seemed to heal

A letter that seemed to heal I stared into Joey’s tear-filled eyes. We sat on the cold cement of my driveway and a soft wind blew my long hair across my emotionless face. The love of my life had cheated on me. I was so hurt, but would not let Joey know. As he poured his heart out to me, my facial expressions remained cold. I could not believe that the one who I trusted more than anything in the world had betrayed me in a state of drunken disillusionment. After Joey confessed his betrayal to me, he wrote me two letters begging for forgiveness. These letters have affected me in so many ways. I have read them at least a thousand times. The letters did not make Joey’s actions right but they did make me feel better about myself. The letters also helped us overcome this obstacle in our relationship and grow stronger in our love and our trust. It was just like any other day. I went to school, then met my two friends at a coffee shop. They told me that they had to tell me something and that it was the hardest thing that they had ever had to tell someone. They told me that Joey had been with his ex-girlfriend this weekend while I was out of town. I was shocked and in a state of disbelief. My cheeks burned and turn

The day outside was absolutely beautiful, which made me feel even worse. My friends tried to comfort me, but at the time it seemed impossible. This letter let me know how truly sorry Joey was and that he could not believe that one stupid mistake would cost him so much. I took a deep breath and stepped out of my car. Those letters remain in my glove compartment, so they will be there whenever I need them. Joey is not the type to express his feelings like that on paper, so I know that it must have taken him a long time. The last thing I wanted to do was go to school, but my mom thought that it would take my mind off of everything. Slowly tears began to roll out of my eyes. I"tmm not going to elaborate on all the details of his story because they literally make me sick to my stomach. We love each other more now than we ever have. I woke up the next morning with puffy eyes and an aching headache. I could tell that both of these letters were well thought out to show me how much he cared about me. I know that even when Joey and I separate, the words that he wrote me will never be forgotten. This letter consisted of the reasons Joey loved me.
