One year
So there´s this guy… You can say he´s my boyfriend, but that sounds a bit odd to me, so let´s call him “Petit Monsieur”.
A couple of days ago we celebrated one year of relationship, and I gave him a present: a book. I had been planning this gift for months. I found this book one day in June while I was wandering in a book shop with some friends. It was there, in the new release section. “Forbidden Plants” was the title and I immediately thought of him (who am I kidding? I´m always thinking of him <3) because he loves plants, and I knew it was a perfect gift.
Next, it was the book dedication. I wanted to say “I love you” but it sounded too plain. So, I took my time (I still had several weeks) to think on a better text... and I did, or at least I think I did. I ended with a letter rather than a few lines. I liked it, and I thought he would too. I wrote it in the first page of the book. I added a black origami kitten (I love cats).
The day came, and I gave him the book. I always overthink so I imagined hundred of different scenarios: what would I say, how he would react to the present, what he would say about the letter, kisses, words of love…
Of course, things didn´t happened as I would imagine, but it was pretty good. I was surprised he remembered the anniversary was near (he didn´t remember the exact day, but that’s how he is). The book didn´t impressed him that much, but he browsed the book and find the pictures and poems interesting. He skipped the first page, so I had to mention the letter… he said he would read it latter, alone. He didn´t know how he would react or that was the reason he gave me. It was OK, I guess.
It´s been four days since I gave him the book, I don´t know if he already read the letter, and if he did, what he thinks of it. Of course, I already overthought another hundred different scenarios: he didn´t like it, he thinks I´m pathetic, that I have poor writing skills, I made him cringe, or maybe he really loved it and doesn´t know how to react… Anyway, I guess waiting is the only thing I can do by now, right?
