GET AWAY FROM ME

ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND

So you DO know how to text back with more than just a word.

this isn't funny. you've turned down every outlet in the country after this decades-in-the-making UAAP moment and you're treating it like a bargaining chip

Oh, see, I got 2 sentences.

read

Okay, okay, I'm sorry.

And I'm not bargaining, Yvanna. I told you I meant what I said. The deal doesn't change just because you're taking your time deciding.

and what happens if you make it all the way to the championships????

I'm not stopping anyone from publishing a story.

I'm just not talking.

THE STORY

IS YOU!!!!

Well.

You know what you have to do to get me to talk, Reporter Barbie.

And for the record, this was never some romantic gesture or an elaborate way to win you back. It was about proving I meant what I said. That this is still your story.

read

Yvanna, I know I hurt you. I'm sorry.

The worst part is that I knew better.

I know things don't just go back to the way they were after something like that. I know trust isn't something I get to ask for just because I miss you. And I know I can't erase what happened.

read

But I don't want this to be where our story ends, Yvanna.

read

Not because I'm lonely or I can't stand the silence, but because the thought of this being the end of us hurts more than I know how to explain. I keep telling myself that people lose each other all the time and survive it. But every time I try to accept that, every time I try to imagine my days without you, my mind refuses to go very far.

read

I don't want to reach a point where your absence will stop feeling strange. Where missing you DOES get easier.

read

I don't know if there's anything left for me to say after this. Maybe there isn't anymore. I just need you to know that you changed something in me. For a long time, for years, I thought I had to become somebody before I could deserve the things I wanted. Then I met you, and for the first time, it felt like who I already was might be enough.

read

So if there's still room for me in your life, I'd like the chance to prove that you were right. If there's still any part of you that believes in us, then I'm asking for one more chance.

If you'll still have me.

read

Anyway, uh, let me know.

I'm sure you're bursting with questions by now. I'm giving you all-access to ask every single one.

I'll give you time to think about it tomorrow. Your next chance is Game 2. :)

I hope I see you there, Yvanna. And I hope it's not an unreasonable request.
