There was a knock at the door
Mary opened it and smiled
It was her best friend Jane
She had not seen her in a long time
They hugged like there was no tomorrow
Tears rain down their cheeks
They were both gasping for breath
Eventually they untangled from their long embrace
Mary stood back to look at her friend
It had been three years since she last saw her
Jane looked exactly the same
They went inside holding hands
They sat on the sofa in silence looking at each other
Loving eyes talking to each other
Not daring to blink
In case this was a dream that might evaporate
They talked non stop catching up
Lots of adventures to share
A few tears shed but lots of laughter
The wine flowed freely
So why did you come back now asked Mary
Jane started to cry
Mary tried to console her friend
She just sobbed incessantly
Eventually Jane gained her composure
I came back to see my sister
Who would that be asked Mary
YOU! sobbed Jane as broke down again
I found that we were both adopted from the same mother
Mary looked at her anxiously and said
I had better cancel the blind date I had set up for you
It was with your new brother
