and he's helpful

Today I’ve spent lunch time with an Indian intern and I realised that when you’re somewhat confused and keep on double-guessing your decision and here comes someone from a totally different perspective who tells you, “I think you did what should be done.” And he may not entirely agree with EVERYTHING and you may not be able to tell him EXACTLY how you feel and why you did what you did and everything that happened in between but even with his bleak understanding of what you’re going through he gives you a good, firm nod, it makes you believe that yeah, you indeed did the right thing. You may never even come close to guessing how relieving it is. But of course you’d still feel pangs of negative emotions every now and then but you always go back to that one fateful lunch with someone who doesn’t share anything in common with you yet believes in your decision, you know you’re in the right path.

P.S. Although somewhere along the conversation, healthy, sad tears sprang and towards the end he was like, “okay enough torturing the napkin” and I, unaware of what I was doing, looked at the torn napkin with strong holes all over it, blushed.

Super P.S. And yes Hana, it's because you don't want to eat lunch with me anymore that I'm stuck with my new bestfriends. :P Although I admit, N is helpful.
