Yesterday I talked to Kayla. She told me something that made me feel a million times better. She told me that I was a really good friend and that she felt bad leaving me here. I almost cried. After a year of being called her roommate and not her friend, after being left to fend for myself, after hating myself for not making her want to stay, being told this was just what I needed. I needed to hear it for some reason. I can't really explain, but something so simple as her telling me that she missed me made everything okay. It helped. So much. So, thank you, Kayla. Not just for that, but for being you. I've never met anyone like you. We've had bad times. We've had really strange times, but they were good. Sometimes you brought out the worst in me, but you really helped me be whatever I wanted to be and to stop trying to be what I thought other people needed me to be. I know for sure that i'll never have another Kayla, I may never even have another friend that I'll be as close to as I was to you. But that's okay because I think that's the way it's supposed to be. And since i'm a buddhist now, i'm just sure that we will be reincarnated into little squirrels and we'll have fun chucking acorns at people's heads.
Always,
Charley
