"Pelopia"--
"I see"---
"In school ?--
"Yes"--
"How much did you love her ?"--
"More than eveything ....I cannot describe"--
"Hmm...."--

I knew she was serious then and that's why I changed the topic.

"Remember me ?"
"Off course I do"--
"So you loved me from seven long years. Why didn't you say before ?"--

It took her a time to type the real reason in a brief way as she was annoyed too by the fucking app we were using where Long explanations are meant to be avoided.

"We didn't talk before"--
"But I messaged you last year too"--
"I...... I lost your number...Today only I got and I thought to message you first"--
"Thank God you did"--
"Why ?"--

Well, how to say her why directly ?

"No, or else you would have again lost somehow "--
"No.... This time I'll not"--

For the first time I was talking like that with someone. I felt greedy really and went back into the conversation she wanted to avoid .

"So when did you realize that you loved me ?"
"The day when I started missing you"-

Well that's a confident answer. I appreciate that.

"I see"--

"So when did you start missing me ?"
"After I left your place"

Now entering into the conversation she wanted to avoid the first day I asked

"Why didn't you tell me before ?"
"I tried....but can't"
"Why now then ?"
"Now I didn't want to miss the chance that's why."

She somehow felt uneasy to express

"Ok, I got"

I said to save her a bit from this situation.
