Missing Your Call When You Needed Me
Filed on the record · By the undersigned
To Kuchu Puchu, my boyfriend,
I hate that I wasn't there when you called. You reached out and I wasn't available, and I know how much that hurt—especially when our time together is already so rare and precious. I understand what it feels like to need someone and have them unreachable, and I'm genuinely sorry I was that person for you.
We already don't have enough moments together, and I don't want to be the reason we lose more of them. Whatever was keeping me busy doesn't matter compared to you. Those long conversations—they're one of the things that keeps us connected across the distance, and I'm going to be more present and reachable for you. That's what you deserve, and that's what matters to me most.
Thank you for reaching out in the first place. I'm here now, and I'm listening.
— Shreya
