| - | |
| We ve known each other for almost a year | B |
| And we get along very well at the workplace | C |
| Considering our close friendly relationship | D |
| It s odd that you haven t spoken to me on the phone | E |
| I wanted to know your contact number | F |
| But I wasn t going to ask you for it | G |
| I felt that you d refuse to give it to me | H |
| How I wish I could talk to you every night | I |
| - | |
| I overheard you telling someone your phone number | F |
| And I wrote it down for future use | J |
| I wasn t eavesdropping on your conversation | K |
| So don t get mad at me Monique | A |
| I shouldn t have texted you without your permission | K |
| You didn t even know that I had your number | F |
| But I went ahead and contacted you on your mobile phone | E |
| I couldn t tell you that I love you in person | K |
| And I didn t want to miss such a good opportunity | H |
| - | |
| I was a little hesitant to start an oral communication | K |
| So I sent you a text message to say hello | L |
| You didn t reply to my text and it was frustrating to me | H |
| I was positive I had the correct number | F |
| Therefore I sent you another text message | M |
| And you didn t respond to it either | F |
| I was bent on reaching you so I tried again and again | N |
| Nevertheless I got no response from you | O |
| - | |
| I m embarrassed to say that I almost gave up | P |
| At that point I said to you I know it s you Monique | A |
| Why aren t you replying to my messages | Q |
| Finally you decided to text me back | R |
| You said Hey What s up I m sorry about that | S |
| I retorted Is that all you re going to say | T |
| And I began to wonder what the problem was | U |
| You weren t the same jovial girl who wrap with me at work | V |
| - | |
| You said only a few words and they weren t pleasing | W |
| It was unlike the other times we d talked | X |
| You spoke to me as if I were a stranger | F |
| And I sensed that something was wrong | Y |
| I had a feeling that you didn t want me to text you | O |
| And I just couldn t help saying this | Z |
| You either don t talk much or you don t want to talk to me | H |
| I said these things as if I didn t know you well | A2 |
| You answered Sometimes I m just busy | H |
| - | |
| I told you to hug your pillow as if you were holding me | H |
| You said nobody had told you to do that before | B2 |
| I told you good night after I said I love you | O |
| It was a relief to hear you say I ll see you tomorrow | L |
| The following day you came to the office | C2 |
| And I noticed your new smile the moment you saw me | H |
| You re such an amazing woman Monique | A |
| I need you and I m not going to give up on you easily | H |
