I wonder why you are here? Could it be to avoid facing your problems? Escaping reality into a fictional world to comfort your soul? To distract your mind from a world beyond this book? Or maybe your reasons are simpler like curiosity? Anyways, ultimately your reasons don't matter.
I don't know you, nor do you know me, although I suppose there are many types of knowing. Even if we share our darkest secrets with each other, we will never know each other's name or age. Still even without knowing such things it is possible for us to find comfort in each other. You may call me whatever you want and as for you...
Esmae.
How about it? I'll call you Esmae. It means beloved. I would directly call you love but it seems too much since we aren't too familiar with each other yet, plus it would feel like I'm addressing my significant other. Well I don't mind since I adore pet names. It's silly but there is something that I've always wanted to do but never dare, it is to spoil someone, to give someone all of my love. It doesn't matter if it's platonic or romantic, all I want is to be able to freely pour my affection onto them.
I told you it's silly right? Anyway I understand that not everyone is comfortable with pet names but I hope you'll accept being called Esmae. Also you may or may not already have a partner, so if i do call you love that would look bad.
Esmae, I choose it because I wanted to refer to you with something that would remind you that you lovable, that you are worthy of love. I firmly believe that everyone has the potential to be loved. It's impossible for everyone to love you or even like you, so if there is someone in you life who cherish you never let them go. They are what you need, they can be the one who will save you when can no longer see, when your world fall apart they will be your light.
