Dear Stasi,

Nice Monolopoly reference. I will go collect 200 dollars thank you very much.

Safer, yes. Smart, I haven’t decided yet. I think no one can hurt me if I don’t let them in but that doesn’t seem to be the case ever. It seems as though we’re perfectly matched in the sense that neither one of us has a predictable temperament. I can not always expect you to be warm and welcoming when I am not always warm and welcoming in return. And there are definitely things I keep to myself. I hope to tell you about them some day. I need to trust you for those secrets to be let out and I hope some day you will let me trust you. Alas, I’m on guard with anyone who shows even a remote interest in me. And yes, you’ve done well keeping me on my toes.

If you want to keep kissing me your lips better not find their way to my friends Anastas, even if it is just to prove a point. It’s not just your kissing although that doesn’t hurt</strike>.

I feel as though I have learned about you as well and I know there’s hope for you buried in
there somewhere. Between you and me I think you have a chance at breaking down some of my barriers. We’ll just have to see.

Yours,
Sunny
