Dear Vero

Hi vero.

Its me mella. Little chinita. I miss you. I saw that it was your birthday the other day. You’ve been on my mind alot lately. Its crazy now. I cannot believe so much has happened and so much has changed. I miss those days in the back office where i’d be making those candy bouquets and burning my fingertips with the glue gun. And you playing your victor Fernandez music.

Today for some reason your number came up on my screen. And I started crying. Because I just realized even if I text that number. I know you won’t be the one replying. You have been such a huge impact on me and the way I see things more than I have ever realized.

I hope you are watching from up above and seeing what I am becoming because truly without you I have no idea where I would be. Smiling with your red lipstick and hair in a messy ponytail. And your attitude with pat.

I love you. -mel
