"HAPPINESS IS NO LONGER FREE."

Dear H.K,  
 
Remember on our first night when you made that comment on 'easy come easy go?'  
Well,i been thinking a lot about it,about you for the last 2-3 mute days and ah,it took me way back to this piece a friend of mine wrote, in one line he said "Happiness is no longer free."  
When i plus your words on his,i realized ye,it is true!In this era,fortunately or unfortunately,when you find or  you are found by something (someone) good,you have to sweat for it!Put yourself in the line for it(them).  
 
Well,what i really want to say,ask rather; I was wondering if ah,you and i,could have a do-over of the other other night, when i acted like a total mean girl (For lack of better word) and maybe  you can tell me more about the six rooms you have prepared for my kids!Hehe and i, and ah,maybe you can ask me again,when do i plan on coming to Arusha?  
This time i do promise,i will not be harsh!Haha!Really!  
 
I really like you A.I do! And i would love for you and i  to have more than just one,amazing and fantastic,night stand.  
Hey!I never got to do you!Haha!Right! That's because i screwed my night by being ah,too much a rough rider perhaps? Haha!  
 
So,what say you?  
 
Oh!And Mr.There is one more thing! Well,it is more of a condition.  
H.K,you need to understand that ah,there are aspects about me that will or may never change!  
Tonight(fingers crossed) may be perfect,but there will be other nights when i will be harsh and mean or impersonal,nights when i will not 'captivate' you the way you expect or want me too.  
Am saying,if you not strong enough or willed enough to stand the rain,then habibi i will take that "Good luck" now.
 
Otherwise,you know where to find me!
