Why do you not celebrate Valentine’s Day Jose

Not that I really care

But you seem to shy away from it

There is a good reason Ana

Do you remember Julian

Yes he jumped from the bridge

Did you know him

Slightly

Well more than slightly

I was his friend

He was in love with Luna

But she did not love him

He was too quiet

Did he jump because of Luna

Partially

But also because of my cruelty

You are not a cruel person

I was cruel to Julian

Rosa Perez was in on the joke

She told Julian that she often showered with Luna after sport

And that she had a memorable mound of pubic hair

Almost gypsy like in its night

It was then that I did the shameful deed

I removed some of my underarm hair and glued it to a Valentine’s card

Rosa then posted it to Julian on Valentine’s Eve

Was he tricked into believing Luna loved him

And this was her love token

Yes very much

He lived on clouds for days

Until the evening of the dance

He asked her for a date

She turned him down which confused him

Julian showed her the card

And she not only mocked him but others too

He threw himself off of the bridge the following morning

Rosa left the town soon afterwards

She had a breakdown and blamed me

I was just left to live with my guilt

That was my punishment

Each day I breathe I think of my cruelty

It lives with me

Yet you have come into my life Ana

I do not deserve you

God forgives those who transgress

Does he

That is why you met me as I was in a way a sign of his forgiveness

You make me very happy

That is my reward

History cannot change but it can be forgiven
