The letters that seemed to heal

A detailed Summary of The letters that seemed to heal

I stared into Joey's tear-filled eyes. We sat on the cold cement of my driveway and a soft wind blew my long hair across my emotionless face. The love of my life had cheated on me. I was so hurt, but would not let Joey know. As he poured his heart out to me, my facial expressions remained cold. I could not believe that the one who I trusted more than anything in the world had betrayed me in a state of drunken disillusionment. After Joey confessed his betrayal to me, he wrote me two letters begging for forgiveness. These letters have affected me in so many ways. I have read them at least a thousand times. The letters did not make Joey's actions right but they did make me feel better about myself. The letters also helped us overcome this obstacle in our relationship and grow stronger in our love and our trust.

It was just like any other day. I went to school, then met my two friends at a coffee shop. They told me that they had to tell me something and that it was the hardest thing that they had ever had to tell someone. They told me that Joey had been with his ex-girlfriend this weekend while I was out of town. I was shocked and in a state of disbelief. My cheeks burned and turned c

The next couple of days were the hardest days that I have ever been through. I woke up the next morning with puffy eyes and an aching headache. The last thing I wanted to do was go to school, but my mom thought that it would take my mind off of everything. The day outside was absolutely beautiful, which made me feel even worse. I though about Joey throughout the day and I couldn't stop thinking about when we would be able to be together again. No, This wasn't right. I shouldn't be thinking about when we will be back together, I should be thinking about how much he hurt me. When what seemed like the longest day of my life came to an end, I walked outside to my car. Tears immediately came to my eyes at the sight of the long stemmed red rose and the two tightly folded letters tucked underneath the windshield wiper of my car.

Those two letters mean more to me than any other type of writing. I have read them so many times that they are worn around the edges and there are small rips where the folds are. Whenever I feel bad about myself, I read those letters. If I have a bad day, I read those letters. I know that these letters were not the result of a good thing, but they have certainly brought about a good thing.

The moving words that Joey wrote to me were meant to let me know how much he cared about me. To have Joey write down that he thinks I am a wonderful person gave me an incredible feeling inside and a new sense of self. The letters lifted my self esteem when I needed it the most. I still get the chills whenever I read the kind words. I know that even when Joey and I separate, the words that he wrote me will never be forgotten. I will always keep these letters close to my heart.
