my dearest Jovita:),

i love your eyes:), and you're so gorgeous. I wanted you to know how amazing of a person you are, for letting me feel such a way that i did not expect i'd feel in my life, yet here i am towards you, here i am writing this down for who knows when future me makes a move. did he? will he? or did he run? i won't be surprised seeing him running away from you.

those aside. i love how you'd do anything for your friends ZOE, it made me see such pure souls still exist that not need reminders of someone else, but rather, you do it for them, for yourself. when i saw you pag first day of school, i was skeptical, i was denying to fall for you because it was too fast, to love you. but the more you talked to me, the more it was of a chance to see you eye to eye, your eyes.

i love your eyes, have i said that? your eyes were the reason what brought out all of you, your personality, your smile, your dimples, your funny and corny jokes that doesn't hit well sometimes, and just YOU. i loved you for you, when i knew that you were a a sheep who was also following our Lord's commands. that just made me value you more, not in a societal way of ranking people, but i saw you wayyy differently.

when i knew that, i started praying for you everyday, talking to God, Lord, i pray that you'll give ZOE someone that'll love her for her, not because of any feelings that a guy got because of their time together but loving her for her, seeing her being her, and her laughing to any random things she finds funny, to my surprise, you brought up that guy who you said was waiting for you for long na, and i'm proud and happy for the guy for loving you for YOU.

that aside, yes this is your typical corny way of confession about what i like about you, but making it seem more romantic and emotional.

i love your voice ZOE, it makes me weak, it's the kind that if talked to, you'd listen to her. it's sweet, it's pure, and it's gentle. which still correlates to you:) you're sweet, pure and gentle, i see it in almost all of the things you do, you take your time in doing it, not rushing, not pressured but doing everything in your own way. You stand out than any other Girl ZOE, and yes that's corny paminawon, but who wouldn't see that? who wouldn't see you?

you're SMART, i know you downplay yourself with your emotions ZOE, you think that you are worthless if you don't prove it academically, but i don't see that, i see a lady who Loves our Lord, that alone is amazing, i see a lady who tries her best to finish a certain task giving it her all, if not then she still tried. i see a lady who wakes up and puts on her makeup that she little to not need at all giving her best again and again. you notice things most people miss, observative beauty, you became someone i care more than i expected jud.

the way your eyebrows move when you’re focused, it’s small, but it’s my favorite thing to notice. you might have not realized it or seen it for yourself, but the way your face softens when you laugh, it's perfect, it changes everything. It’s not just that you’re pretty, it’s the way everything about you feels unforced, you live in the moment, and you're always cute while doing so. you're the kind of beautiful that DOES NOT need attention to be noticed. your expressions, the way you react, it's what makes it hard to look away.

if this message was seen or not seen, still i'd pour how much i deeply cherish you ZOE, i may act like i don't care but i genuinely do, especially if it's YOU. i love those little moments where i'm finding you and i see you, and you see me, yes as a friend, but i see it in a different way. in times where i see you struggling to find a chair, i'd die to find a chair for you to sit on, you may think like i do it to everyone but i prioritize YOU. have i mentioned your eyes?:)

your eyes were the reason how i knew that if you smile you'd have small dimples, which on thought, looks very cute on you. i love how you try to be funny but it ends up being corny and ending in you smiling in your own ways. you put on a show for EVERYONE, and i mean everyone. you dress up very nicely for yourself, it shows how expressive you are, like you Look VERRYY amazing when you wear cold-shoulder tops, off-the-shoulder blouses with ruffle details, or wide-sleeve kimono tops. it suits how you look, it compliments how beautiful you are :).

seeing you firstly in a room where it's crowded, you just give off the aura of rainbows and sunshines, you have that shine in you that i see nobody has. Which makes you unique. I think my heart chose you before I even realized it and that you matter to me more than I can keep pretending that i don’t.

and trust me, i've tried quitting to fall for you but in a sky full of stars, you're always the one my heart keeps finding. you make me feel safe and calm ZOE, you DO. There’s something about you that feels… right, and I don’t want to keep pretending I don’t feel it. You feel like someone worth understanding, not just knowing, have mentioned how gorgeous you are and how beautiful your eyes are:).

You’re more than just someone I like, you’re someone I respect. So my final act of love to give is for me to respect you, AS FRIENDS. i'll make it not weird don't worry.

Forever yours.
