Dear Diana

February 6, Saturday

Dear Diana,

   I have no friends.

Okay, now that just sounds pathetic.

I have friends, okay, but what I mean is, I don't have any close friends. Yea, that's about right.

I had a friend once, but she moved away and afterwards I never heard from her again. It was as if she had completely forgotten about me. I feel as though she hadn't really liked me in the first place, but had just hung out with me because I was the only person willing to do so.

I have a another friend, but I don't really fancy her. She's a bit conceited and I find that I can't be myself when I'm around her. Georgina is the same. They are a two of a kind. Neither realizes that I secretly loath their company. Sometimes I wish I could move to a new town or a new country, and just start over. Yes, that would be ideal.

I always like to imagine what things would be like if my life turned into one of my favourite books, or if I was a secret superhero. I daydream a lot. More than I should, actually. It's what happens when you are the youngest of the family and have no siblings close enough to your age to hang out with. Long and short of it, I am a loner. I like the quiet and I like to write, and since you are both quiet and provide the means for writing, I feel as though I can trust you. You are probably wondering why I named you 'Diana'. 

It's because my full name is Anabelle Alessandra Lancaster. You have the first part of my first name, so we're both Ana's. In fact, do you remember what I said earlier about not having any friends? I have you and from now on, you are officially my friend. In fact we are not just friends, but BEST friends.

   You and I are going to have so much fun together.
