Ash,
You haven't replied to any of my previous letters, and I haven't seen you in a little over a year. Here in Japan, it seems as though life is normal again, but for me, life is abnormal, because you are not with me. Abnormal is a word I learned in my English Class. Ibe-san has helped me pay for them, so I can speak better with you. I think my English has gotten lots better; I know lots of big and complex words, but I will never understand your spelling and grammar- it is so hard! We will have to enrol you into a Japanese Class when you get here, how would you like that? You would feel like a kid in school again. I look forward to practising Japanese with you, I can teach you all of the most important words, like how to say hello. I wish I had taught you that word and not how to say goodbye. There is no good way to say goodbye in any language, not even Japanese, so you should just forget that word.
I am missing you every single day, so you better hurry up and get here. I also tell my friends about that summer I spent in New York with you, and they say to me, that I must be lying to them, because it sounds like a movie. Life in Japan is nowhere near as exciting, but I think you will like it better here.
I am waiting patiently for you, and I am so excited to see you again, I think I would probably start crying.
Actually, I think I lied about being patient, because I want you to come to me right now!
I will wait,-Eiji <3
