for Kat, and only Kat
Not yet!
There's something in here for you. It opens on your birthday, because some things are worth waiting a little while for, and this one is.
come back as often as you like. I'll be here either way
one small thing first
Can I borrow your voice for a second?
Nothing is being recorded, nothing is saved, nothing goes anywhere. This page only needs to hear you breathe for a moment, and I promise it makes sense in about ten seconds.
Sound on, somewhere comfortable, and no rush at all.
Happy birthday, Kat!
three candles, not thirty‑two. I wanted you to still be able to breathe afterwards
Close your eyes.
three candles, three wishes. take all the time you want, I'm not going anywhere
3 candles left
wish one
Granted, straight away. You've spent so long taking care of everybody else. Today somebody is taking care of you.
wish two
Granted. The people you love, safe and well and happy, wherever they are. I'd have wished that one for you anyway.
wish three
Ah. This one is lovely, but it needs somebody else to say yes first.
Me.
Happy Birthday, Love! 🎂❤️
This is your day, love, and I hope you’re enjoying your Taiwan journey with your closest friends.
I hope you know how much I appreciate the person you are. Your kindness, your warmth, and the way you make people feel cared for. Thank you for always showing that you care, even from the time we first met.
Noon, hiling lang kita. Ngayon, tayo na. You’ve given me so many firsts and memories that I will always be grateful for.
Somehow, you came into my life and gave colors to this blank canvas. And for that, I’m genuinely thankful.
I hope this new chapter brings you more happiness, beautiful experiences, and everything your heart deserves. Keep being the wonderful person that you are.
Happy birthday again, love. Enjoy your day. ❤️
Jay
and whenever you're ready, come and find me
