"Have you prepared the speech yet?"
"Speech?" I was confused.
"Never mind. I am talking about the breaking speech!" Veronica said.
"Breaking speech?"
"Okay... okay I should have known this earlier that you are a dumb..... a really dumb person who never gets things at the first place"
"Should a dumb person feel hurt by such kind words? Because I do!" I raised my eyebrows while saying this.
"Okay don't be so over dramatic. Let me explain you what a breaking speech actually is...."
"Isn't that something where you have to break your bones while saying something?" Okay I know that was very very lame.
"Zoy! I won't judge you for that. A breaking speech is when you express your true feelings for a dying person before you broke down into tears."
"Okay... so i assume that we are going to say some words to Paul making him realize even more that he is gonna die soon. I mean isn't that evil. Atleast for me it is."
"No silly. We are going to say this once he die..." Veronica stopped. I could see the tears in her eyes.
"Okay. So it must be easy for you to prepare such a speech because Paul already knows about your true feelings. I mean there is nothing hidden about it." Did I really try to make the surroundings less depressing? I don't know.
"There is a lot I haven't told him yet."
"Can you tell me?"
"I haven't even confessed my true feelings to him."
"And still you two are together. How convenient? I mean is it that easy to be in a relationship without a confession?" I was confused. Again.
"We weren't in a relationship. I lied to you. Actually I want someone to see us as a couple and that was you. The truth is I never confessed it myself. I didn't have those guts. I arranged a party for his special day and still it was hard for me to tell him my feelings. When I heard about his disease, my heart sank and I realized that now it is too late." Veronica said that in one go.
I was shocked. I don't know what to say. Okay so the couple I thought was so perfect was not actually a couple. They were just friends. Paul has someone who loves him so much yet is afraid to confess. Seriously. I don't understand this.
