Such an irony. Now this investment really looks dumb. All those things I bought, did you keep any of them? Did you know how much it meant? Even after all this time, did you know what I did? Working all those extra hours meant nothing. If you didn't grab my heart, I would be so much better now. Especially in those rough times where money seems to be tight. I always told myself that it would be okay. That it was fine. I was making you happy, it was all that mattered to me. To see you smile and to never worry about anything. Look who is worrying about it now. What a pathetic choice I made. I should have known that it would come back and haunt me
