Max,
I cannot say I ever expected for us to cross paths again, and to call this a coincidence does not quite do it justice. Living in the same building after all this time has to be much more than that.
Our first meeting is not something that is easily forgotten; so yes, I do remember what we did. There are some people who may prefer to forget such things, but you and I are not like that. I never realized that you learned anything from me, but I am glad that I could be someone to be learned from in the first place.
I admit that I have received your letters, but for various reasons never managed to respond. I can only apologize and hope that you will forgive such an indiscretion, although I did keep them.
How have you been since we last spoke all those years ago?
