Summary
I am Alena. I have a twin, Kyle, my best friend Mia and our other best friend Lucas. My 'mother' hates me. My father is never home. And I finally am able to follow my dream with him by my side, until he broke my heart and left for the Marines. I supported him in his choice. He asked me to wait so I did until he sent me that letter. The letter that shattered my heart and blackened my soul. I vowed to move on and forget about him.
Then my stupid brother brings him home after not seeing him for 5 years and now he plays for the hockey team that I help train and recruit for. And he lives with me.
Seeing him brings back too many memories, but what I didn't know is what he went through and what else I didn't know, is that him being back home, in my life, would make the old me come back, but not without a fight.
This is our story.
_________________
Alena,
I don’t know what to really say to you. We have been talking through letters for some time, on the phone occasionally, but something, in my gut, doesn’t feel right. I have been ignoring your letters and it is about time that I tell you the truth. You are my best friend, and you always will be but I need to say this so I can move on.
What happened was a mistake. That night was amazing, but it should not have happened, and I can’t stop thinking of how it was a mistake. I know I asked you to wait for me, but it was wrong of me to ask, to put you in that place. We knew I was leaving, and we knew we didn’t know how long I was going to be gone.
A part of me will always love you and I want you to remember that. You will always be my best friend, even though Kyle wants us to be more.
I cannot have you wait for me. I don’t want you to. I cannot in good conscience have you be waiting for me when I don’t know what is going to happen during our time apart.
I hope one day you can learn to forgive me, but until then, this is goodbye.
- Lucas
Dear soldier,
You have been away for training for some time, and I just wanted to write to you and say that I miss you. I think about you every day, wondering if you are alright. Our last night together replays in my head and I cannot forget it. Something tells me to keep holding on, but apart of me says to let go. Your last letter, to be honest, broke my heart, so this is something that I must do, for my own piece of mind. We have known each other since we were kids, you were my best friend, you, me and my brother were always together. I know all your secrets and you knew mine and I thought, after what happened, we could move forward and be something.
We wrote every week, like clockwork, then you stopped, and you had me worried. Then that letter came, and it broke me. I never thought that I could hate someone that I loved so much, so, I am giving you what you want. I am letting you go. I know Kyle doesn’t really know what happened, and I plan to keep it that way, even though he pushed us to be together, but this is something that I cannot forgive you for.
I don’t know why you think you know what is best for me, you don’t. I told you I would be here for you, but you decided to let me go, so here, I am gone.
I do wish you the best Lucas. Maybe, one day, when we all grow up and come to our senses, we can meet again. But until then, go f**k yourself.
-Alena
