A week ago, when I was travelling on an airplane to my city London, I found an envelope. The strange thing was that I found my name on it. So, I opened it. It read:

Hi,
Did you miss me? I hope you are alright.
You remember me, right? I am your archenemy.
And your closest person. What is he doing? Does he get any patients now?
I also hope your elder girlfriend Nerie is fine.
I am waiting for you at your home. And yeah, I have the key to the last part of your name.

Yours,

The letter was not signed. Can you guess who he was? Or as a matter of fact, who am I? I am quite famous.

Are you and your archenemy:

Sherlock Holmes and Professor Moriarty?

Did you miss me? I hope you are alright.

"Did you miss me" is what Moriarty says on every screen in the last episode of Sherlock (credit to Lord of dark)

And your closest person. What is he doing? Does he get any patients now?:

Dr. Watson, explaining the 'patients' part

I also hope your elder girlfriend Nerie is fine.:

Irene Adler, an anagram of 'Nerie'

I am waiting for you at your home. And yeah, I have the key to the last part of your name.:

Sherlock, is actually pretty self-explanatory
