Epilogue
It was four months since Alan and Adriana said farewell to each other. At this time, Jake had ended middle school and was about to enter high school. One day, Alan came across an envelope with Adriana's name in the return address. Alan smiled as he opened the envelope. It was another hand written letter that he decided to read aloud.
"Dear Alan, it's Adriana again. I graduate in a few weeks. I've also been accepted to the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs. On a side note, I just wanted to thank you for being a part of my life. I hope you will still continue living where you live now so I can continue sending you letters. Once you change your address, and by that I mean if you change it, send me a letter immediately. I hope to hear from you again soon. Love, Adriana. XOXO"
Alan was so touched by the last part of Adriana's letter that he smiled lovingly and put his hand on his heart. From that day on, Alan and Adriana continued to speak to each other as Adriana continued college for a degree in Theatre. They remained the closest of friends.
