Dear Marlee,

I don't know what happened between Freshmen year and Sophomore year, but I'm sorry it happened.

Whatever it was, it hid the real Marlee that I love from me.

I used to think that Marlee was gone forever, but I know she's down there. My only regret is that I didn't get to see her one last time.

I used to wish we weren't friends before, because I couldn't handle the pain of knowing that I loved you and you hated me.

I now know I wouldn't trade our friendship for the world.

I love you Marlee.
