A letter from Apr 11, 2023

Hey future candace? Wondering who i am?? HAHHAH im you from your grade 8 years. How are you? Are you and emman still together? HAHAH has aisha gone to California? Has naisha gone to Canada already? How's your life bae?? Imissu sheesh HAHAHAH kidding2 you may forget about your entire grade 8 life so, ill make you remember everything from the very start. Candace, when you first entered into the grade 8 classroom u were pretty nervous. I mean i was pretty nervous because i saw some faces i wasn't familiar with before because we were never classmates in grade 3,4,5 and 6. Atleast Aishas there to guide you right? In the first day of school i was pretty nervous and shy looking, i was a very silent person in the first 2 weeks. As time went on i started to warmup to the people around me, i even became friends with jovanna, dj one of the brightest ppl in class, and your future bf Emmanuel. I neger expected we would be friends because i thought they wouldn't like me, as time went on i earned more friends. I became friends with yvaine, arch, hannah, maery, jasmin, josh, rihanna, cj, dave, marc, krystal, mekailah, naisha from our set, which is set b. U still liked sky at this time. But as time went on i started to loose feelings for him, i started falling for ding2 the guy u hated the most, u kept saying u hated him when actually, u HAD a massive crush on him, i kept saying i didn't like him and kept saying i liked sky, i was denying it. Little did i know he actually liked me since we got close, at September her started falling for me and i didn't really notice the signs .. I realized it after one month of always arguing with him, i kept smacking the **** out of him, pulling his hair, screaming at him for the dumbest reasons, always teasing him, always arguing with him like a "old married couple". I never liked him really at first, but in October i fell for him completely. I realized i liked him a lot, he was sweet, charming, handsome, cutee, his smile was so prettyy when he shows his teeth, he always had that cute little eyesmile and his dimples would show, and even if i kept getting mad at him, he always stayed by me i probably hurt his feelings when i said i liked sky, hahahah hes so precious. Couldn't help but fall for him, we had a lot of fun together including our friends too. Times where we laughed with each other, 11:11 my sweetheartss, spend time with each other, laughing at lunch tgt, teasing emman, being teased by emman, and i mean lots, but lotsss of chika n chismiss. Overtime i wanted to confess to him, before i didn't, we went to aishas birthday party where a lot of chikas were spilled, keep this between us but we talked a lot abt our deep feelings, like how yvaine still loved prince from the bottom of her heart, hannah who still liked karl, arch who was still with her boyfriend, josh admitting he was in love with regina, dj also admitting he was inlove with regina, jasmin confessing to regina, aisha having the biggest crush on miguel, emman admitting he liked arch before, and me admitting i liked someone from our section. Emman dropped the most major hint on me, and i overthinked it as usual. He said, he liked someone from our section and she was from set b. He said, "kanang, like diba daghan man magpaprint nako? Oo diba, pero even if daghan kaayo, despite sa kadaghan nila kani siya nagpaprint jud nako" my friends all looked at me, they knew emman liked me a lot, genuinely he cared for me and cared about my feelings. My friends knew from the start he liked me a lot, i just didn't notice it. Pardon my grammar pls HAHAHA😭. We had our first candid pics tgt, overtime, i decided to confess to him when it was November. November 7. The start of f2f classes both sets into 1 class, i decided to just go for it, but when i tried to go for it when i went to school i was so hesitant, emmans best friend gab, told me "kung e reject diay si emman sa babae, kamo nalang candace" i said noo HAHAH "we're just friends." i was such a ******* liar pls . We kept bugging emman abt his crush mostly my friends he said short-haired girl, he immediately changed it to long-haired, he also ranted to me abt her like how he doesn't wanna confess, he wants to be w her, but hes scared he might get rejected and maybe their friendship would be ruined. I kept pushing him to confess, my friends did too especially aisha, my best friend of all time. Until finally after all that time pushing him, he finally said "LAGE OY MO CONFESS NAKO IGKA DISMISSAL KARON" so yeah we dragged him downstairs, aisha kept telling him tell HER which was me, i was so **** clueless and he wanted to run away,he kept delaying his confession to me, until he decided to turn things around and said "mo ingon kos akoang crush, kung muingon si candace sa iyaha" like ***** bro my man got a lil smart here😭.. Man i was so scared but it was pressuring so, i just decided to go for it. Aisha looked at me, she said, "unsa naman" imo na ingnan? " i said in response"ingna nalang." And aisha told him," ang naibgan ni candace, kay IKAW. " he was speechless. He got crushedback and he didn't expect it, i was scared of his response but then he said in response." aw, Naibog pud kong candace." he ran away after that. I WAS SO SPEECHLESS LIKE MY HOLYU I CAN'T DESCRIBE IT MY HEART WAS BEATING SO FASTT. We officially started dating, in secret. We hid the fact that we were a couple, we just kept saying we were "m.u" stands for Mutual understanding or in bisaya terms, murag uyab. We stayed rlly strong. He even hugged me at our Christmas party. At Valentine's day, he wasn't there hr was feeling really unwell.. But he came after Valentine's and gave me a flower, my first flower from a guy. He loved me a lot, i did too. There were just times i kept overthinking like. Whatif he doesn't like me na? Whatif im the worst? Whatif he loves someone else? Despite that, he still liked me. As for our friends? We grew closer and finally aisha confessed to sebastian, he liked her too i was veryy happy for them. As for yvaine, arch, hannah, yvaine broke up with prince, she liked val but, my opinion only val took her for granted. And now they've fallen apart, as for arch, she kept crying sbt her ex for months, i comforted her, same with yvaine too. Hannah, hannahs crush is a mystery, i don't know who it is. Maery?? Well she's become better and liked raphael from gr8 honesty, we may not really communicate much with them but, despite that we still talk like normal, and like we didn't tslk for months. Like nothing changed. I really love my circle of friends. I love them. I earned some friends from set a too. Chrys, Dona, Zara i guess., alwyn, ayessa, tyler, don, dylan, julia, ellyce, mariel, val, felix, sebastian, raquella, Christine, niño, and lila. I love them as much as i love everyone i cherish around me. Same with Chloe and Sindy, my ride or die frr. Same with mikaela, kate, and mikaylla. Mikaela the best friend i could always have. Kate and Mikaylla my unpaid therapists. Cory, Chrys and Kim my sidekicks and ride or die too, my partners in crimee. As for me and emman, well we encountered a problem lol, martina from discipline liked him and i got pretty defensive but only till there. The biggest fight we had, the most srs one, the first fight we've ever encountered. Zara and him. I don't really like zara now, i see her differently. I want to be friends with her but, i can't bring myself to be friends with her anymore. Because of the issue we faced and her talking **** abt me behind my back. Good thing roy, dj, keisean, josh, aisha, lila, jasmin, Alexa, sindy, chloe, kate, mikay, chrys, cory, niño, francine, and maisha were always there for me. My class section 8 courage, we had a lot i mean a lott of happy memories tgt. Best section ever!! Ill really miss them. 2022-2023 8 COURAGE. Signing off. Time flies fast, it's almost your birthday love. Your parents accept ur bf and are really happy w u now, getting pressured by my computer like actually. Im worrying abt my clearance, ill miss my gr 8 year. Best year ever. Finally found a guy and friendgroup that could treat me better. Ill probably cry at the last day of school, HAHAH im gonna look so ******* ugly😭.. But who cares, maybe i do AY ahahshah, iloveuu future candace. Hang in there love 🥹. I hope me and emman are still together when you're reading this. Oh well, if not, then maybe fate has other plans. If we are, then i hope we are happier and stronger facing every challenge that comes our way. From, Candace ⌒♡ to: future Candace!
