Overture

Letter 1 to: Ms.Whitaker

Hello, my best friend its been a while. I wanted to write to you to tell of my endeavors and to apologize for leaving out of your life so soon. You're 37 now right? How's it been since I left. I know you have a family and stuff now and if I'm correct they're 10 and the other ones 8. I hope I'm right or else you may be right about me going crazy with age. Anyway's I know your sitting on that leather couch of yours reading this wondering where I've been. Im doing ok so you don't have to worry but I'm in a little town called vineyard. The locals here are really nice but I don't really know what to do. I have no family down here so I guess I got what I wanted but it's just soooooooo boring. I still don't have myself a man unlike you. You always did have a knack for getting all the fine boys in high school but me, I was Never really interested which I'm pretty sure you know. I still remember that time I rejected that "jock" in front of all of his friends; boy was he mad. Ive been meaning to visit tall but I've never had enough money working here but I can probably get a good amount within a short amount of time for I have a plan. Im gonna rob a bank. JKJK. But I do have a plan. Anyways hope you're doing well and that the next time I write you it will be in good news.

sincerely, Best Friend

Letter 2: To Ms.Whitaker

I GOT IT I GOT IT!! My plan worked and I now have a thousand dollars within a day. I can't tell you how ecstatic I am telling you this. I've been wanting to visit for so long and now I'll actually be able to. I hope the address you gave me was good from a long time ago but then again you wouldn't have replied to my last letter unless the person writing back has taken you hostage and is making you write me for some reason. Dont worry I'll come save you. Anyway I'll be stopping by soon to your lovely home and we can recollect over such lost time. And yes I know its weird that I'm writing instead of calling you but first I don't have a phone and If I did have one I probably wouldn't trust the government to not spy on us soooooooo. I'm gonna go treat myself and by tomorrow I'll get a plane to you and i'll finally be able to see those little darlings you have. Smooches

Sincerely, Best Friend

Letter 3: To Ms.Whitaker

Bad news and good news. I lost most of my money when I was you know treating myself and now I only have half the amount that I originally had. However, thats enough to get close to your house so ill stop and get a ride from another state so don't worry you'll be able to see your bestie soon. These fuckers at this bar probably took my money now that I think about it but oh well I dont care I've gonna get to you no matter what. Ive been having this little cough but I'm sure it'll pass in due time and then I'll make my way over there. Im gonna get a ticket to that town of yours and I'll meet you soon. Smooches

Sincerely, Best Friend

Letter 4: To Ms.Whitaker

I finally made it down here and I can feel your presence as if your right here but your still about a day drive away from me. The cough has grown worse in due time so I guess thats just my luck so I'm gonna hold off for now as I dont want to get your kids sick; there young little hearts. Im staying with my sister right now and she's taking care of me. She's probably the best person I know to take care of me. Once this cold or whatever it is has passed ill make my way over. You better have saved some food for me cause when I get there I'm gonna be munching like a high person smoking weed. Till the next time I write. Smooches

Sincerely, Best Friend
