♡ valentina ballerina. goodness. we've been through so much in the short (yet also very long) months we've known each other. we didn't go through nearly enough. it ended all too soon. you were right, though. i saw this coming. and somehow, it's unexpected. i will always miss you. you were and are everything to me. you were the only thing keeping me on scratch for a long time, and now i'll stay for you. i'll wait for you. if you ever check in, i hope i'll be here. i am so proud of you, val. i'm so proud of who you are. i'm not disappointed in you. i'm not mad. i'm nothing but grateful for you and heartbroken over the end of our era. but it's not the end of us. we'll never end, my love. it will always be el and val, the spelling bee queen and the english major, the old man and her wippersnapper<3 it will always be us. to the end. no matter which of us is gone and which isn't, or even if, someday, we're both gone. i will always be waiting for you, my love. maybe we'll meet someday. God blessed me so much by bringing you into my life. i don't think that this is really the end, because in the end we're hand in hand, laughing at our rediculous competitions of who's 'fastest', feeding into each other's many delusions, crying over our celebrity crushes who are way too old for us. in the end, it's you and me. until then, i will miss you. so much. and i'll hold on, i'll wait for you. i won't stop telling you about my life. i won't stop believing there's an end where we are together as the best friends that have ever been. never forget me. i can't forget you. may God bless you. you deserve it. thank you, thank you, thank you. i love you, my vally girl ♡
