"We know each other but haven't had the chance to be close." I replied, then, not wanting her to ask about me since I have nothing spectacular to share about my life from age 0 to 18, I decided to shift the direction of our conversation. "Anyhow, I see that you four have been friends before entering this university. How did that come to be?" I asked, while thinking 'might as well use this time to gather some info.'
Lara giggled as she looked at the two boys beside her, then she started her long winded talk of how they all met and how they have been friends since forever. She only took a pause when Andy arrived and sat. Andy was also a conversationalist and he also explained while laughing and joking, in sync with Lara.
I let it all sink in. Apparently, the 4 of them have been friends since the time they were in their nappies. Their parents were from the same generation, and had children on the same year, and it all began from there.
