I missed Alanna. I missed the girl time and her ability to distract me enough to not think about what was happening in my life. I swear the girl never ran out of things to say.

I didn't want to get into it with her because I still wasn't ready to open up and talk about it. I still wasn't sure I even knew where to begin. How do I talk about it?
