Letter to Belinda (2012)
“The big empty house loomed on the hill as Lennie got out of the car, thanking her for the ride to the doctor.
“Don’t forget your medicine, Lennie.”
“Oh yeah, I almost forgot.”
“Be sure and take them just like I told you. The directions are on each bottle.”
“I will. Thanks Miranda.”
As she backed up to leave, she watched him go into his empty house. She could relate to his loneliness, because since she won the Lottery, she seemed to be just as lonely. She didn’t see how Lenni...e could stand it, the loneliness, and now the burden of knowing that he had cancer, and that he didn’t have long to live. If he wasn’t so simple minded, he probably couldn’t stand it. It made her shudder to think of what he had told her over his banana split. ‘Miranda, you are the bestist friend I’ve got in the whole wide world!’ And the sad part was, he was right. She was not just his best friend, she was also his only friend.MoreLess
