Dear Cal,
We were so close, yet so far away.
This was the month my family moved. I thought I'd reinvent myself, that I could be the girl in the stories I had read--the one with all the secrets, the one who would catch your eye. I thought there would be a boy next door, one who would love me forever.
But the neighborhood was just rich old people. There was no one for me.
I was lonely, oh so lonely.
