Five years ago today, your college roommate Eli died by suicide. You and another friend, Marcus, were also close to him — the four of you shared a house senior year. You and Marcus have drifted; you haven't spoken in about two years. There was no fight; life just separated you. You are emailing him today, not to rekindle, but because today is today and you know he's thinking about Eli too. 120-180 words. Just the email body, no preamble.
