Dear Qiu, I built this solar system for you. Like Mercury, the messenger of the gods, let me tell you a story about gravity - about how two people can be pulled together even after the darkest storms. I know your past with Carl burned hot and cold like Mercury's extreme temperatures, but that's not the end of your story.
Venus, they say, is the planet of love and beauty. I know the cruel comments after your accident created an atmosphere as harsh as Venus's. But like Venus's eternal dance with the sun, you kept moving forward, even when the world felt toxic.
Our home planet, where your journey began. When reality became too heavy, you found shelter in virtual worlds. Like Earth's atmosphere protects us from harsh space, your VR headset became your shield. But Earth isn't just about protection - it's about life, and you have so much life to live.
In AFTERLAND, like Mars with its two moons, you lived between two worlds. As Gloria, you found a new way to orbit through life. That's where I first saw you, not knowing the beautiful soul behind the avatar. Like Mars's red surface, you painted a new world with the colors of your courage.
The largest planet in our system, like how my feelings for you grew beyond measure. Each of Jupiter's moons represents a different facet of our virtual romance - every conversation, every shared moment, every silver spiral drink we shared as Gloria and Evan became part of our own cosmic dance.
When you disappeared from AFTERLAND, I felt like Saturn's rings were between us - beautiful but impenetrable. I searched for you in that digital wasteland, just as astronomers search through Saturn's rings for new moons. In that emptiness, I realized that gravity isn't just a force that pulls things together - it's also what keeps them in orbit, even at a distance. Our connection remained, even when we couldn't see each other.
Like Uranus's tilted axis, I turned my world upside down searching for you. In my warehouse, building robots, trying to find a way to bridge our worlds. Some might call it unconventional, but love makes us rotate in strange ways, doesn't it?
When the digital seas parted for Gloria, I understood that love, like gravity, can bend the very fabric of our universe. Neptune, god of the seas, witnessed our story crossing the waters between virtual and real, between fear and hope.
Finally, Pluto - once a planet, now redefined but no less significant. Like how Gloria helped you find your way back to yourself, sometimes we need to be redefined to become who we truly are. Qiu, you don't need to be afraid anymore. Like these planets orbiting the sun, I'll always be drawn to you. Will you step out of the virtual world and dance with me in the real one? Love, Evan
