Dear Sister,

I miss you. My phone use to nonstop ring, now it barely rings. I hope you are absolutely happy in Ireland. You don't know how proud I am of you and your success in life. I know it hard for you to be there away from us your family but I know you're doing it for a reason. I just wish sometimes I could run to you and just hug you or text you and say I'm on my way. But it's not like that. I can't just get in my car and drive to you ,literally, water would be in the way. Why have you stopped calling? “Communication is the key” is what I use to say to you both. I haven't heard from her in forever I feel like since you're not here she doesn't bother contacting me. Were you the glue that kept us together? And if so what do we do now? Who new time will go so fast one moment were sitting in our table discussing prom plans the next were away in college each doing our own thing. But we kept a promise to write to each other yet I don't know the last time I received something. Yes I understand were all very busy but lately I feel as if neither of us are trying to keep this friendship going. And that is if there is still a friendship. Everywhere I look I see your absence. Everytime I go through something I hear your voice. But everywhere I look you're not there. Its as if as soon as I met you I was taken away from you.
