Dear Fateen,
We can't force someone to love us as much as we love them. We can't force someone to choose us as their first choice. We can't assume we are special in someone's heart just because we love them. Sometimes they love somebody else, and that person is much more special to them than we are, and of course, they love the second person much more than the first one. We must know our place in someone's heart. It's okay if they don't love us as much as we love them. We must accept this fact and continue with our lives. Hide our pain and smile like nothing happened. I took a long route, been on a long journey just to realize that, but I finally know where I stand. Does it hurt? Oscar Wilde once said, "Hearts are made to be broken." Never regret loving so hard and giving your whole heart... even if it means getting hurt.
Please be patient with yourself. Eventually, everything will be okay. Healing takes time. Don't stress out, okay?
Wishing you a Happy Ramadan. May you always be blessed.

"Abang makan apa?"
"Tak tahu la"
"Abang stres, kan?"
"Tak…"
