"That stupid Sonic... why does he always run from me all the time?" Amy said to herself as she walked into her room.

"Ohhh! The newspaper's here! Hmm... where are the comics? Comics... comics... comics......... huh? What's this?"

Amy saw a part of the newspaper where you could send letters to people and they would reply with answers. She took a good long look at it, wondering if it could solve problems between her and Sonic. She saw one section that particularly caught her eye. It was called "Love and Loss with Lucy". Apparently, she was only for helping ones in need of help with their love life. She took a long look at it, took a big deep breath, and decided to write a letter.

"Dear Lucy,

There's this one guy who I really like a lot. I've always had a crush on him, and I've never questioned whether I like him or not. We've been friends for many years now, and I don't really see it stopping right here. The problem is, he doesn't like me the way I like him. Whenever we are around each other, my stomach gets full of butterflies, but he doesn't have any effect like that. I know we're great friends, and I don't have a problem with that. It's just that he doesn't "like-like me".

I am very mature for my age, and I am very similar to him. We have a lot in common, and although he is older than me, he isn't much older than me.

What should I do?

Sincerely, Rosebush."

"I really hope this works!" Amy said to herself

-------------------------- 3 days later ----------------------------

"Dear Rosebush,

I really think that you just have to accept that the guy you like doesn't feel for you the same way you feel for him. You might have a very strong grasp on your belief, and that's just fine. You can continue to feel that way for him. But unless something sprouts up, you'll just have to accept that he's not looking for you for a relationship. Be strong! There are many more guys out there that seem right for you.

Truly, Lucy."

As Amy read through the letter she thought "What a waste of time this was. I was hoping for a tactic to get Sonic finally, but this lady is a complete idiot. Oh well. I now know not to trust newspapers."
