Dear John by Anna Harris (best books to read for young adults TXT) 📖

Dear John:

I miss you terribly. Today I went to the calendar to count how many more weeks before we see eachother again, I need to see you again. I am always thinking about that day when we will see eachother again. Remember last time you were here?, it was the happiest times for both of us. I know how much you went through in the past with that girlfriend that got married to someone else, that is very tought, I was going through my own broken heart for an idiot had crushed it to pieces. When we met I knew that you just wanted a friendship and I was on the same level, I didn't want a relationship or anything that could smell like one but you won me over, your kindness and the way you made me feel so important in your life. I had to admit I was very jealous of that woman you loved do much, you talked to me about her sometimes and I felt that I would never be like her but then with time we both felt in love, it was slowly but it happened, two lost souls that found one another.

John, I do know you went through a lot in your life, your mother walked away on you, that is really tought but I had so many hardships as well, my dad and I didn't get along, he was always putting me down and making me feel like I was nothing and his stepson was the eighth wonder of the world, I am sorry to say this, I had never hated any one but that guy I dispise with all my heart, he made a fool out of me and that I would never forget, maybe that is why at the beginning it was so difficult for me to think that you really care for me. Remember the day we went to the beach and you pretended to teach me how to surf, wow that was a disaster, first of all I need to learn how to swim and then surf, don't you think, we laugh for hours and you were realling understanding to me, thanks for that, your patience was incredible. I can't believe you are coming in three weeks, oh God John I had been counting the days ever since you told me that your tour was almost over.

I know you are probably going to enlist againg, I do understand for by now the Army is your life, for so many years without a family that institution has become like the family you never knew, I do understand for some reason my work is my refuge at times of being lonely for I don't have a family either and all I really have of value is you and for that I am grateful, you came to my life just in time when I was about to drawn in dispair and loneliness. You told me in your last letter how much you missed me and that you too were counting the days to see me, that you have my picture in your helmet and that it has been a lucky charm, well, that makes me happy, keep it in there for the rest of
your tour. The first day you are back here I promise you that we are going to go eat the food you like the most and you can go surfing as many days as you want to go and I would watch proudly as you crash the waves with your board. That first kiss is unforgatable, still so deep in my heart, is like I can still taste your lips on mine, I want to kiss you again and again.

John take care, now more than ever be careful and think that I am here waiting for you, praying for you and wanting to see you and feel you in my arms.

I love you;

Anna
