The friendship between us never fades(褪色). Mary Allen was my best friend—like a sister I never . We did everything together: piano lessons, movies, swimming, horseback riding, and so on.
When I was 13, my family moved. Mary and I in touch through letters, and we saw each other on special days— like my wedding and Mary’s. Soon we were with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less. One day a card that I sent came back, “Address Unknown.” I had no idea how to find Mary.
Over the years, I thought of Mary often. I wanted to stories of my children and then grandchildren. I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then my mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Mary could .
One day I was reading a newspaper I noticed a picture of a young woman who looked a lot like Mary and whose last name was Wagman— Mary’s married name. “There must be thousands of Wagmans,” I thought, I wrote to her anyway.
She as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs. Tobin!” she said excitedly, “Mary Allen Wagman is my mother.” Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years. We laughed and cried and asked about each other’s .
Now the empty place in my heart is filled, and there is one thing that Mary and I know for sure: We won’t lose each other again!
