Maybe Say It

Some things are easier to write than to say.

Dear Atarah,

It rained quite hard today. It started slowly at first, then all at once, like it could not decide how it wanted to fall. I found myself watching it longer than I meant to.

I am not entirely sure why I am writing this. It just felt like I wanted to put a few thoughts somewhere, and somehow you came to mind.

We have only really shared a few conversations so far. But there is something about the way you listen that makes me think I could get used to talking to you. I have never felt this curious about another person in a very long time.

I do not know you very well yet, and I do not think I fully know how this will go. But I thought I would try writing anyway, just to see how it feels. Besides, when you said you were looking forward to talking again, I found myself wanting to believe you.

If you are reading this, I hope your day was alright.

I think I will write again.

Until my next letter,
C
