to the one who has been on my mind for an incredible length of time...

i love you...

i really really do...

i've always kept it on low profile, because i saw the A Levels as a higher priority than you... and also because i thought (from the people who told me so) that it was the same for you too...

yet after the A Levels, when i wanted to tell you, i didn't dare to... because i was afraid... afraid of ruining it, afraid that you would not accept me for who i am... afraid that i am not good enough for you...

but i realised that i cannot take it any more... your very presence blessed me with strength to go on... your words, though sometimes blunt and direct, constantly reminds me to be a better person...

all along, i thought i could live to be a bachelor; but that was before i realised how much i need you... to be by my side, to be my hero and my guiding light...

and to be my partner for eternity...

if you are the old auntie, let me be the old uncle then... as you've always called me... and let us stay together, till the day we really become old auntie and old uncle...

the question is...

are you willing?
