The last time I had seen her before this weekend was Thanksgiving weekend when I was fifteen . In the past few years , I had only really spoken to Duke and Jenny a handful of times - in the holiday season , typically . And my Duke had also been up to Michigan a few times and had brought his son , Ryan , with him , but our contact really was n't at all regular .

Question: Why might the person not see the others for long periods of time ?
Answer: Their watch does n't work .They do n't live near each other anymore .They forgot their name and phone number .They have gone blind .
