A letter from Jun 10, 2023

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, You are 18, I can't believe it. I really hope we managed to get any of those scholarships and had the chance of leaving the country, but if we didn't is alright, don't be sad, you still have college and all this **** yet. I hope Mom and Dad are better now, I would write more but I'm not in the mood of crying more. Oh, and our dream of writing? How is it going? Is one of our most realistic dreams I think. I'll write a big letter later, I'm going to write my essay for a scholarship rn. Don't forget me, the little boy that I hope is still there, take care of me. (that's definitely not a reference to the new Spiderman movie)

Dear Past Me,

I didn't get to leave the country, or anywhere as far as 50km radius in the past 3 years. I'm really sorry bud, I know how much...
