The choice not exercised

I think I met one of my soul mates.

But I am not going to do anything about it.

You see, Benny, one of my dearest friends, is with him. She loves him, more than she realizes, more than she is willing to admit.

And I love my friend, like more than a sister.

He is undecided about Benny. And I have seen it in his eyes that he too suspects the connection, like a dream that one has forgotten.

But friendships are too great to be sacrificed, even for soul mates.

So I will let this one go, and wait for another.
