and so...i was digging up some documents when i came across this.
this is one of the homeworks i've done during college.
we were asked to write to someone in our future, & i decided to write something for my future husband.
* * *
Dear husband,
Hi! This is your wife, Danilyn's seventeen year old self writing a letter to you and first of all, I want to say thank you for marrying me.
I am writing this because this is an assignment for our English corner and you probably know that I studied in China, right? Well, of course you'll know! I bet I did tell you about my experience in China and how beautiful my school is! I know I also talked about the food, the people and the Chinese traditions with you.
How's being married to me? I hope I'm not giving you headaches and I know that there are times that I don't listen to the words you are saying. I'm naturally stubborn and I follow myself when I know it's for the best. The seventeen year old Danilyn wants to apologize for everything.
Am I doing well as your wife? No? I admit that there are things that I can't do. I'm a terrible cook and my only specialty is making bibimbap (which is really spicy) and I also can't lift heavy things. I hope you understand and please be there for me whenever I feel like giving up. When I'm sad, just hold my hand. I don't usually cry and when I do, I lock myself and hide. Please understand me, understand that I don't like to shed tears in front of those people around me. I don't want them to see me falling apart. Just be there for me, don't ask me to cry because I will never do that in front of you. Dani is arrogant, really, really arrogant.
I'm arrogant and I know I put up fights in our house sometimes. I get annoyed easily, I lose temper with small things and I raise my voice when I'm angry. I kick everything in my sleep and I have this habit of biting my nails when I'm anxious. I also jump in the cinema when I see something that thrills me, it's embarassing. I know I did tell you that before we got married and you won't be reading this if you didn't accept me.
I promise that our life won't be perfect like those love stories on TV but I'll try my best to make it...beautiful.
When we fight, all you have to do is to reach for my hand and apologize. I feel guilty easily and I'm not the kind of woman who stays mad for a long time. I don't need roses (because I can't eat those) and chocolates (you can give me some if you're in the mood) but all you have to do is to talk to me and hold my hand.
As I said, I'll try my best to make our story beautiful. Yes, there would be misunderstandings and all but I will always care about you. I'll be your greatest bestfriend who will stay by yourside...forever. I'll be your instant comedian if you're sad and I assure you that I'll put a smile on your face everyday. I'll treasure you, will always try to protect you and when you're sick, I'll be here taking care of you. I'll embrace you when you're scared, tell you that everything's gonna be fine.
And when darkness blinds you, I'll be your eyes. If you can't walk, I'll be your legs and I will be your ears if you can't hear music. I'll sing for you if you can't and I know I don't usually say these things to you but...this is my promise.
My heart will always beat for you.
And I will always choose you, even if there are 10,000 Lee Tae Min standing in front of me. I'll always choose you.
Please take care of me and our kids. Don't break my heart because...because murdering people is a piece of cake for me (I am just kidding).
Please don't hurt me. Don't make me cry. Love me and our kids.
Let's live happily, okay?
The sweetest sweetheart in the whole wide world (EEW!!!),
Danilyn
