Keeping in Touch

There is one thing better than making a new friend and that is keeping an old one.

—Elmer G．Leterman

Two years ago my family moved.The day that we left，my best friend and I cried together in my empty bedroom for hours.No words could describe how sad and homesick I was during the five－hour car ride to my new house.Life was so unbearable that it seemed to be the end of the world.When we finally reached our new house, I rushed to the phone to tell my best friend my address and phone number.We talked for a little while, but I had to hang up because the long－distance call was expensive.

On the first day of school，I called her to tell her how it went. Then, on Halloween I sent her a letter with a picture of my new friends and me enclosed. Days later, she wrote me a letter. It wasn’t even a letter—just a bunch of pieces of paper saying, “Best friends forever.”

When I finally got her e－mail address, I e－mailed her the longest letter I had ever written.I never received an e－mail back, and by the third e－mail letter with no response, my messages grew shorter and shorter.With each passing day, I got angrier and angrier. At last, I never received a reply from her.

Mom said that I could call my other friends，and that I didn’t need to always call her.Give up on my best friend? Give up on the person I had known all my life? The person I had gone from diapers to Barbies to nail polish with, and who had been in the same class with me from the first through the fifth grade? My first answer was automatically “No way!” But after five more e－mail messages, three phone calls and two more letters，I started to consider what my mom had said.Every night about a week, I stayed up in bed thinking, “Should I give up? Should I keep trying?”
