Six letters. Only five, if you take into account a repeated letter. She doesn't. The word that sums up everything about her feelings for him should be long, far longer than six letters, but she'll take what length she can get.
Six letters. She's written them down, here and there - various handwritings, various fonts on the computer. They never fail to make her flinch, and she never fails to notice them in any written text. They should be joyful letters, but each time she writes them, she feels another ounce of weight fall onto her shoulders, settling there as she considers the way he treats her.
Six letters. She'll never understand him, and somehow, that makes the letters worse, as though her feelings should be dependent on understanding him, rather than simply accepting him. But as much as the others tease her, she's not like him, she can't just accept the way he can.
Six letters. Only five, if you take into account the repeated letter. Five or six, it doesn't matter to her, because it is the truest word she's ever written. And it is a complete and utter lie.
