Dear Keith,

I know we haven't spoken in a while but right now I really need your help.

Can you help me?

That's a dumb question; Of course, you can't. If I had my way you'd never see these letters ever. Yet here I go, pretending you can hear me.

You know Jason, right?

Well, he took me to the movies today.

Just the two of us.

It was refreshing.

Don't get me wrong, though.  It's not like I wanted to go in the first place. I didn't even think about spending time with him, one on one. Just the two of us. If I'm being honest, he basically pressured me into going. I'm glad he convinced me though.

It gave me something to think about other than you.

Anyways, that's not important right now.

As I mentioned, I need some help.

Jason and I went to the movie together and he walked me back to my house and we talked a little. He did most of the talking though. I just listened carefully and butted in when I felt like I should. He asked me about you, though.

I couldn't answer him.

Whenever it comes to you, I lose all sense of vocabulary and the basics of the English language. Sometimes I just end up rambling in Spanish. Kinda like I am right now...

Where was I?

Oh, right.

After I went all quiet, Jason seemed to get a bit depressed. He shut off completely. It was scary to see.

I think I did it to him.

So, here's my question to you, Keith;

How do you cheer up someone who's sad because you are sad?

Stuck on your island,

Lance
