Quote: "A friend is one that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts what you have become, and still, gently allows you to grow." --- William
Shakespeare This week's "Something Extra": The Destiny of a Friend It was a chilly, foggy day when
the phone rang. "Ty Duke at your service!" Tyler answered. "Hello," a nervous voice said, "this is Nikki Drake and I need to talk to you - do you have minute?" "Sure," Ty cautiously
said. Nikki began, "I am Joseph Drakes older sister," she paused, "he asked me to give you this letter he wrote. I promised him that before I left Forrest Heights, I would give it to you. Is there anyway you could come down to the bus station right now?" Ty stammered, "Ummm….ahhh, I'm sorry,
but who is this again?" "Nikki Drake, and I am Joseph Drakes sister," the voice on the other end of the phone said. "Joseph was a classmate of yours. He had leukemia and passed away last week. Before he went, he wrote a letter for you, and made me promise to deliver it." Her voice quieted,
and Ty strained to hear. "I just didn't have the time to stop by your house. I could mail it, but I promised Joseph I'd deliver it to you." This time there was pleading in her voice, "I must head back to college today and my bus leaves in an hour, can you please come?" What is this
