“I believe in love as an emotion,” I clarified. “I believe that love can be strong. I believe that love can be beautiful. But I also believe that love is conditional and subject to change. It can happen in a split second, or after a prolonged sequence of time . . . but it always happens. Real and unconditional love is as make belief as vampires, and werewolf’s and any other mystical creature or fairytale ever written on paper.”
