I am Jenny Tobin. When I was young, Linda Evans was my best friend, even like my sister. We did everything together—had piano lessons, watched movies, went swimming and horse riding.
When I was 13, my family moved away(搬走). Linda and I kept in touch(保持联系)by writing to each other. However, one day that year, a letter that I sent came back, stamped “Address Unknown”. I had no idea how to find Linda. Over the years I missed her very much. I wanted to share my stories with her. There was an empty(空的)place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.
One day while I was reading a newspaper, I saw a photo of a young woman. She looked like Linda a lot. “This must be coincidence,” I thought, but I still wrote to her.
She called me as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs Tobin,” a woman said excitedly, “Linda Evans is my mother. Just wait a moment. She will talk to you.” Then I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years. We both laughed and talked about each other’s life.
Now the empty place in my heart is filled. And there’s one thing that Linda and I know for sure. We will not lose each other again.
