-Love Letter From Him-

Dear Rodiah,
                        It's been such a long time since we last met. I don't know if you remember me or not, but please, read my e-mail until the end.

Rodiah,
              On 21st of February 2014, do you remember when we first lay our eyes at each other at UTP? We both fell madly in love by then. I know that I have promised you, to be by your side, asking you to be my angle here and hereafter. I know I have promised you so much and yet, I'm nowhere good enough by the time to keep that heavy promises for you. Oh, how I have wronged you.
               One thing that I regret the most is that, I didn't have the chance to tell you the truth. Why did I break my promises to you. Why I left you when that time, there's nothing like the sight of you, for you have completed me. That one night, when I was drunk with your love, I don't know how but my father, he was so mad with me for falling in love while studying. His madness, so full of rage that the next day, I was already on my way to Europe. Everything, was under his control. 
               And time flies. He made me married somebody else that time, all for the sake to make me forget you. That time, I was so mad at myself for I had to break my promises to you. Not a day past without me thinking of you. But God makes people forget. I began to accept that I may not be able to be with you, so I moved on, dear Rodiah.
               But I was not able to have any children due to the fact that my wife wasn't able to reproduce, so I don't have any kids. And life as a geologist make me travel around the world so much that I literally became obsessed with my work. I became unloving towards my family. But, I never knew what I was missing.
               20 years gone, and only then I began to ponder what I was missing. But, that time, my wife was called by the creator. Oh, and now I began to fully regret for not appreciating what I have.
Rodiah,
             Two weeks ago I went to UTP and seeing our pictures together at the Hall of Fame for the best performance for representing Malaysia in acting, my mind began to roll back the years. So, I began to search for you for two whole weeks. And only now I got your e-mail after much persuading the officers at UTP.
            I know that you are also like me, but I did not want to talk about what I knew about you by looking at records. It's just that I want to ask for your forgiveness. For such a long time have I carried a heavy burden of guilt because of the broken promises. 
            We are now at such old age, you, a year senior, but before I left this world, allow me to make up my mistakes for you. No, I'm not asking you to accept me, but at least, allow me to meet you again. For the last time. Allow me to tell you this, face to face.
            Oh, after such a long time, I hope that you have forgiven me. Allow me to make up for my mistakes. I'm very sorry for leaving you.
             You may accept or may not accept me, but Rodiah, if it's possible, can you be my angel again, here and hereafter?

Sincerely..............
