“The people and the friends that we have lost, or the dreams that have faded… Never forget them.”
Click to viewEventually... you stopped believing me, stopped trusting me, and maybe I deserve it. What does it matter if I tell the truth anymore, if all that comes from it is more suspicion? All I can do is match what you've said...
I... was willing to let everything go, I figured I was honestly treating you badly, and that everything must have been my fault. Then, those words you had said... I won't accept. I am NOT as bad as "him". Someone that cheated on you, for five years mind you, is much worse than a guy who breaks a promise and goes to the store with his ex to buy a bird cage. Making a bad decision to go shopping with someone you dislike, and sleeping around behind your back... If I were to have done the latter, would you have been happier?
Do NOT compare me to others.
I'm aware that there have been many difficult situations put before us, and they came one after another, but never question my love for you. It remains as strong as it was when I first met you. I won't pursue you any longer, out of respect. You know how to get a hold of me, just know that the place in my heart that you occupy will never be for anyone else, it never was. Just as this was never a competition.
A friend of mine lost his girlfriend to a plane crash, and ever since then he's used the following words, maybe they'll have some meaning for us:
"In the depths of our darkness, I'll burn... so you can find me."
(PS - I always hated Tidus, Shuyin felt like so much more of a "hero".)
