One day at work, Simone, a shy high school student, finds a letter addressed to her. She opens it to find out that she has a secret admirer. With Christmas around the corner, she can't pinpoint who has been in the store and could possibly be her adm...
Aggressive knocking on my bedroom door knocks me out of my daydream. I shove my head into my pillow and mumble, "Come in."
I hear heavy footsteps approach me. "Man, you have to get up. Stop wallowing," Zack says.
I groan in response. I feel two pairs of hands tug me to turn over. I see Zack and Tyler hovering over me. I just stare at them. Zack goes to say something, but Tyler interrupts, "Dude, you have to get up. I know that you are heartbroken, but you can't put your life on pause."

"Okay," Zack says pointily, "You better come or else I will fire you."
Zack and Tyler exit my room, but they leave the door open to be annoying. So, I stomp to the door and gently close it. I make my way to my bed but decide against it. My body takes me to my desk. Maybe I should write a farewell letter. I don't want her to be worried about my well-being. One letter and then I am done.
