i want to write this for everyone who has had a big presence in my life here in mumbai, but you're the easiest to write for, so i'm going to start here. i informally decided to myself that i was going to live like i wanted to leave no regrets behind, but i wouldn't have minded talking to you more. when i told mom i made a new friend, she already knew about how difficult it had been for me to find my people here. i have friends, but they're not— friends, you know? i'm quite jealous of your group that way. and when i told her i've made a friend who i just clicked with, somehow, while i was waiting in front of asiad, she told me to enjoy it. and i think i have.
it's very weird to me how i feel like i can just tell you anything, and i won't be judged or laughed at for it. i hadnt told anyone i got rejected from the college i'd applied to until just yesterday (26th) (i don't know when i'll give this to you) when i finally sent it to my family group. i'm very grateful for that, i hope you know that. college may be over soon, but i don't anticipate conversations ending (or at least i hope not). if you're going to be in mumbai, you're not too far, and i hope we can meet. and i'll make sure to call every birthday.
