Three weeks have been passed since my last conversation with Monica,  I am doing just fine.

I have been in touch with Carol, On and off university. She often tried to get us three together but everytime, destiny had some other plans and I failed to have a good talk with Monica. Well, I dont even think about her much now, I have realised I was bit fast in identifying my own feelings.

As I randomly roam around in my college,  I see carol sitting and I go sit beside her.

"Oh, Hey Jack, what is up?

"All good, you tell, why are you alone today? - I ask

"Actually Monica has taken a day off,  She and Lee have taken a trip to outskirts. They will probably be back in 3 days"

"That is good. You must be feeling bored  without your friend"

"No, I have you too" - she smiles

"Ofcourse you do, but Carol tell me something
You are not seeing someone?

"Umm..Jack.. Ok promise me, you wont judge me"

"Na..I won't, go on"

"Jack..You can call me old school, but I like to take things slowly"

"Slowly, As in? "

"Um..Slowly as in.... I do believe in love, but I believe you cannot love a person unless you can be a good friend to them"
I believe, I would be doing wrong to love a person who is not my friend first."
What do you think jack, Can you fall for a person If you cannot befriend them?

And I was blank for a moment. I always thought I will never find someone who will believe in my theory of love and friendship. I was so blown away with her words, having some real talk with her made me realise how beautiful person in and out she is. With thousands of thought about Carol in my mind,  My mouth chose to speak something different.

"Well, Carol,  I think I am getting late for my class, I should probably leave.
Bye girl"

"Ok fine, Bye"

I straight away went towards my car and left the place.
On my way home, I kept on thinking about her. I was mesmerized to hear her thoughts, they matched mine.
I realised I was smiling all way,  maybe this time my Real feelings have hit me, that too hard.
