We'll always have Portland in the Springtime.

"I thin I've lost too many people here to stay," She says "I feel like I have no purpose here, like my life is on pause for something and I have so much to see"

"I know, Adele, and you should follow that everstrong feeling and go."

"But I want to see you, I feel like we never got to really say goodbye, and it's not fair, because I miss you, and I love you."

"Then come, but you must come within the next two weeks, otherwise the house will be too full and it will make my uncle uncomfortable."

"I'll find a way to come see you, there's really nothing more important in my life right now. Portland is vapid without you...and Kate..."

"I don't blame you for wanting to leave, I would have convinced you to stay and enjoy the summer with me, or even another year before you left. But I knew you were leaving, and I was fine with our swift encounter." As have been all my Portland encounters.

"Yeah, It was short, but I really connected with you,"

"You were there when I needed you the most, when I needed to have closure with Kate, and when I needed a friend to hold at night in my little basement room."

"Exactly. I had such an empty space in my life after Kate died, and I...when you gave me that wine in your kitchen, I had a feeling I would see you again."

"We were there for each other, and that's the important part. We'll always have Portland in the Springtime, Adele. I remember daffodils, and warmish sunny days, with frosty mornings, taking you home before sunrise as the city starts bustling, these are good memories. I needed a good springtime in Portland. You made my stay worthwhile."

She just texted me saying that she'd be here from tuesday through friday. I'm going to miss her, but, as I said, we'll always have Portland in the Springtime.

Sara, that Summer we spent was just as important as this Spring with Adele. Thank you both for making my stays in the City of Roses so memorable.

adele, sara
