The idea came to her suddenly several weeks ago, but it's lingered ever since, and it's always on her mind. So, one day after she's settled in at the Gardens, Saoirse pulls a piece of pretty, pink-flowered stationary onto her desk and grabs her pen.
She reads over the letter carefully. Some of the words are misspelled, but she'd tried to keep it neat and tidy on the paper. She smiles when she's satisfied with it, and signs her name at the bottom. Then she folds it up and slides it into an envelope with Greta's name on it. She'll give it to her the next time she sees her, she resolves.
"Dear Greta,
You have been a lovely person since I've met you. You helped me when I broke my wrist, and you are always cheerful even when you are sad. You are a lovely cook and a fun person to be around. I love seeing you at Green Gardens.
Sometimes I get sad when I think that my brother and my dad are not here. Sometimes I get sad when I think that you are here without your family too. But we are here together, and maybe that is why we came here alone, so we could find each other and be happy.
I just want to say thank-you for being my friend, and I love you."
