Everything happens for a reason.
One door closes so another door can open.
People come into your life to fulfill a specific purpose, and once they've completed their mission they leave as quickly as they appeared.
These are all things that 20 Year Old Addison Edwards believed with all her heart. Maybe he wasn't meant to stay. Maybe he fulfilled his mission and had to go change somebody else's life. Or maybe, just maybe, he'll come back, and settle right back into the little corner of her heart that is reserved only for him.
But a lot of things have changed in the past 2 years.
