Both nights we stayed up late talking in bed. Nothing more than kissing.

I asked her if he knew about me, she said, "To a degree." I asked if he would be mad if he knew we were kissing and sleeping in the same bed, she said, "Probably." I asked if if she thought that he would be justified and she said, "Yes."

No sinking feeling inside. I went into the conversation expecting that answer, I just needed to hear her say it.

She really is great and the type of person I expected I'd meet. Just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

We went in opposite directions this morning after breakfast. I kissed her on the cheek and walked to the G train.
