"How do you do it," Jon asked frustratingly.
"Do what," replied Alex, giving that same quizical look he always gave when he knew exactly what you were asking.
"How did you two move from a close friends to the 'love of your life'? It makes no sense!"
"Dude, not even. I'm telling you, it's all God. He led us to each other."
Jon rolled his eyes, "Oh, don't give me that bulls-"
"Im serious," Alex said, the tone in his voice sharpening. "Let down your pride, your self conceived notions of what you think is a love life and let God handle you. He'll make it happen in His time."
"That's the problem," Jon scoffed, "what if His time is too late? What if this supposed time happens and I'm already dead? You know it's already spread right? I'm dying, you fool! So I hope you can excuse my frustration, but if my soon to be death isn't a legitimate reason for concern well then... Well then hell! What am I to do, huh?"
