This was one of the biggest moments in your life, you stood in the middle of the unfurnished living room, surrounded by various cardboard boxes and plastic tubs, you have moved in to your very own house.
You looked around the place, this was a house you toured a little while ago. What really made this place sold on you, was how much natural lighting you get from the large french windows that peers into the backyard.
The weather was starting to feel a bit more warmer, the grass, the trees are slowly coming back to life. You walked to sit next to the windows, allowing yourself to bathe in the sunlight.
When you sat your feet accidentally kicked a beautiful gift box, you don’t recognize where that is from but the content of the box starts tumbling out.
Scattered around you were envelopes of various sizes and colors, you picked one up and saw the front and immediately felt flustered, “To: Seokminnie”, the front reads, it was a love letter you wrote to him when you first started dating.
You started writing letters to Seokmin because you guys became long distance. Yes, cell phones existed but sometimes you see a silly little card in store that reminds you of him, or when you go on vacation and wants to send him a postcard of where you are now, sending letters to each other was just a normal thing in your relationship.
It has been a while since you guys wrote letters back and forth with each other, since just a couple years ago Seokmin has moved back into town and moved into your apartment. And while seeing each other everyday, the letter sending tradition also faded out.
You opened up the envelope, to see the letter that was inside. In that letter you basically made it sound like a diary, telling him what you did through out the week, and how much you missed him.
You went through a couple of of the envelopes to see all the letters and cards you’ve written him or sent him, some were heartfelt, some were straight up for giggles, some were even just encouragement notes you left him when you lived together in your last apartment.
You were so immersed in looking through all of the letters, you didn’t even hear that Seokmin was huffing, carrying in the last moving box in and setting it next to you, “you’re already unpacking without me?!” Seokmin says with a pout, “what are you reading and smiling about?” He peeks from your shoulder.
“I’m going through all of the letters and cards I sent you!” You said as you held them up for him to see, “I didn’t know you kept all of these!”
“Of course I kept these! I used to read them when I felt homesick, but now,” He pauses, wrapping his arms around your waist to pull you into an affectionate hug, “I have my home with me.”
