If I could just have by xcheopis2001-09-11 16:20:29

Hey, girl. It's been awhile since your last e-mail and I didn't get around to responding. See, I've been so busy all summer and then I went on vacation and then school started and... well, I just haven't written back.

And now it doesn't matter.

Now I can't tell you how thrilled I was to hear that you made it through your first trimester and decided to share your news. You wanted to have your first baby before grad school; this would have been your "Year of the Child."

I can't tell you how pleased I was that you were accepted to grad school. You were one of the better students; you graduated with honours. Grad school would have been easy for you.

I can't gloat and say "I told you so!" when you said that you wouldn't get in to your school of choice. You were so smart and so creative; how could you not be accepted?

I can't tell you again that your stupid puns drive me nuts. You always liked the corniest jokes and you loved to share them.

I'll never see those wedding pictures, I'll never meet your husband, I'll never see your baby. You hoped for a girl; I'll never know if that hope was realized.

You were a friend, a good study partner, a decent person. I'll never be able to say that to you.

And it doesn't matter anymore and I can't stop crying.
