Dearest Susie, Happy Valentine's Day, my love. I know it's already June, and Valentine's Day is way past, but I know it's your favourite special occasion of the year, and I want you to be able to celebrate it every month. I know you love to read sappy romance novels, and I know you have been going to the same pet store looking at the same puppy for the past three weeks. I got that puppy for you today, and I'm naming her Butters, because you told me once her colour reminds you of Scotch Whiskey. I've also started reading Jodi Picoult, wondering why she has to write all those sad stories about life. Life isn't always sad, isn't it? Life can be happy too, right? You were the one who told me to smile more, because you said I look cute when I'm not frowning. You were the one who asked me to forgive my parents for leaving me behind when they went away. You were the one who showed me how to enjoy a spicy dish even after tears choke me up, who made me understand there is more to life than just work, who taught me how to find happiness by giving it to others less fortunate. You were the one who believed in me, and I believed in you. You were the one who told me if one day you should fall asleep and forget to wake up, I should only ask you to open your eyes when it's Valentine's Day, because it's your favourite day of the year, because you love to see happy couples walking down the street holding hands, kissing, looking each other in the eyes and seeing a common future, because you said I should propose to you on Valentine's Day, because you asked if we could keep a dog after we move in together. Susie, Happy Valentine's Day. The ring's waiting for you in that little blue box beside your bed, and Butters' waiting for you to come home. Your mom told me to forget about you and go live my life, but I don't know how to tell her you are my life. My life didn't end when you got knocked down by a drunk driver, because your life didn't, because you are the one who brought meaning into my life, because you are the one who taught me how to live. Susie, it's been three weeks, and it's Valentine's Day today. Can you wake up for me? The doctor says you never will, but I'm sure he doesn't know anything. I saw you move your finger once, and I know you wanted me to put that ring on for you. Stupid doctor keeps lying to me. But I'm not stupid, because I know you'll wake up soon, right? Susie? Butters sometimes lays beside me when she sees me crying, but I'm not crying; I just ate too much spicy stuff, stuff you taught me how to. So, Happy Valentine's Day, Susie. Wake up and give me a kiss soon, alright? I'll be waiting for you :) Miss you lots. P.S. Butters is waiting for you too, and, erm, I never told you this, but, I love you.
