Citali sat down at her desk and sighed quietly. She had realized when she had woken up this morning that she had not written home in quite some time and if she didn't get a letter sent out relatively soon, that she would never hear the end of it. Opening up one of the drawers, she pulled out a piece of stationary and laid it flat upon the surface of the desk. She then grabbed her favorite purple pen, clicked it open, and then sat there tapping it against her chin as she tried to figure out what she was going to write about.

Dear Family,

I'm sorry that I've taken so long in getting another letter out to you. I've actually been really busy with my classes. Which, I'm doing pretty decently with, though like always I'm still struggling horribly with Science. It's still my worst class. No matter how hard I study I still can't seem to grasp it at all. Though, during some of my more boring classes, I do think about you a lot. I miss you all so much, but I'm glad I came here. The school is great.

I also, and you will all be shocked to hear this, but I also made a friend. I know you all probably just fainted in shock, so I'll give you a few moments to let the shock wear off.

Has it worn off yet? Great! So, yes, little ole me, Citali, has finally made a friend. He's a fallen named Esrael, but he has me call him Rae because we're friends. I still can't believe that I have a friend to be honest. And I won't lie, it's been incredibly hard. I keep wanting to push him away, thinking that he'll be better off without me in his life. Which, I know I shouldn't do, but it's so hard not to. Yet, he doesn't let me push him away.

He's even in a relationship! And he still wants to be friends with me. It's been...It's been interesting. I always thought that I didn't need to have friends in my life, that I could go through the rest of my life without having friends. There was nothing wrong with being alone. Yet, with having Rae as a friend, I've learned, that I was completely wrong. That you really can't get through life without having friends. He's seen me at my best and worst already and he still wants to be friends with me. And I love being his friend, I will treasure his friendship forever.

I just, I never thought I would ever have a friend again. I thought I would be alone forever and I had prepared myself for that. And look at me now. I have a friend. And, I'm happy. I'm finally starting to be happy again. That's what I've been missing in my life for the last couple of years, was having a friend. I'm glad that Rae came into my life. I'm glad that I have a friend.

Anyway, I should sign off for now, I've got homework that I need to work on.

Love,
Citali


Reading over the letter that she had wrote for her family, she then took it and crumpled it up into a ball and tossed it into the wastebasket next to her desk. The Goblin wasn't that ready to open up to her family, but she was happy that she finally realized that having a friend in her life once more, was making her life significantly better, and that she was finally on the road to being happy once more.
