A Friend

Hey Simon, I don't know when you'll get the chance to read this letter. Maybe you never will. But I know that after I'm gone, as my friend, you will do the right thing and take care of little Thomas for me. This isn't me telling you what to do. It's just me saying thank you. Because I KNOW you will step up and take responsibility, when the time comes. Don't feel guilty, man. I volunteered to stay behind. And I'm ready to die, if it means I can help my friends. Oh, that reminds me! I can't fix your motorcycle. I'll be shutting up the shop for the last time today, so you'll have to come get it yourself, next time you're in the area. Hang on—I think a customer just walked in. Talk to you later, man.
