My name is John.
It has been a really long time, too long, since we last spoke. I don't know why - she doesn't live far.
I used to see her once every week - more than that, sometimes, and she was so kind to me, so patient. I would always get it wrong and it was always OK.
I often wonder if it would matter to her if I just went back, said hello and thank you. I kind of trick myself into thinking I'm not missed, thinking she would have forgotten, but it's not really much of an excuse. She's only down the road..
