We agreed to keep our distance. There may be a side of your story that I might never come to discover, but this is the side of mine:
I was glad to have a friend like you but who knew it would disappear just like that? I don't have it in me to conjure such beautiful words as you do, but our friendship truly was unmatched.
I was hurt when it all fell apart. It did not help that for each passing day since the incident, I found more things that I think I had a right to know.
This is where we stand, Theodore.
I cannot and will not meet you halfway because I am not going to face the consequences of your feelings; especially when you cannot stand up for it.
I hope you understand where I come from. If there are matters that are too personal for me to know about or that are never meant for me to know...then please realize that this is the perspective of a person kept in the dark.
I've read your pieces and I share your sentiment of sadness, Theodore.
I hope you'll be able to sleep well tonight...I genuinely wish that you do.
