"I don't tend to use the phrase 'in love'" he said. I sighed. "Well, I do." I said sadly. "I'm not anymore, but I was. I really, really was." He was silent. "It's so weird to see all this." I gestured to the slideshow of pictures on the screen in front of me. "This was all only a year ago, and my life is so different now. I thought that this-" I pointed to a picture of myself sitting very close to a chesnut haired boy "- would last forever." More silence. "I wonder if he thinks about this. I do. A lot. I don't think I have feelings for him anymore but I still always think about this. We were together from what. . . September 23rd-" "That's oddly specific." "To New Year's exactly. And I was still in love with him for four months after that." "I don't tend to use the phrase 'in love'" he said. I sighed. "Well, I do." I said sadly.
