to look for him how long did he study here

dear anne please don't look for me i need to be by
myself i can't study anymore tell mum and dad to forget about me

but he says i shouldn't look for him yes well he might have felt that way
then but a year is a long
if i were you i'd report your brother missing
should i tell my parents about the letter
your poor parents they must be so worried
i think you should tell them what you know
what if i can't find him have faith
i'm sure you will you know your brother
you'll find him i'll
show you out well
good luck miss lee i don't know what else to
do um why don't you advertise in a newspaper
