"Is? You still in touch with her?"
"Yeah, she is my only girlfriend I am still in touch with"
"Are you in love with her?"
"No, I am not but I value her as a friend"
"Does she too see you as a friend or…"
"She is happily married. She loves her husband the most"
"Oh, are you jealous of her husband?"
Steve laughed, "What? No, not at all"
"Why not?"
"Because she is really very happy with him and I think she found the perfect partner for herself. There is nothing about him I would be jealous of. Nice guy."
"So, in future, when Erica too will find the perfect partner for herself, you will be this happy?" Paul questioned him because while talking about his ex-girlfriend Steve was truly very happy for her.
But as soon as Paul asked his question, he saw the colour from Steve's face drain out and his face turned pale.
Steve looked like a child whose chocolate was taken away.
