Four Hundred and Fifty-Two

Dear Callumz,

I don't know why it is, but I honestly find it damn near impossible to just be happy half the time. I don't understand it, and I know you don't, but it's just the way it is. It's the reason why I'm so honest- why I speak my mind, which is exactly as I say- I don't believe I am beautiful or amazing; I'm just average, as I always have been.

Please understand that it's not that I don't appreciate your flattery, but to me, I cannot possibly believe it myself. For so many years of my life I've always just been plain old me, who no one ever wanted anything to do with.

Your compliments are sweet and I love to hear them, but it takes a hell of a lot of time to undo the damage that's already been done by people long before you came along. Six months versus three years is a big difference. I'm not trying to undermine your opinion; I'm just stating mine, which, I guess, has been proven correct over the years.

Love always,
Kaiteh.
