Natalie came into Monk's place at 7 o'clock on the dot.
"Mr. Monk," she told him, "we need to talk. Sit down"
"OH GOD," he said, "This can't be good"
"It's not good it's not bad we just need to talk," she repeated, "sit down"
Monk sat down across from Natalie
"Okay," he said, "I'm listening"
"Let me begin by saying I love you. I don't love you…that way but I love you because you happen to be one of my best friends… if not my very best friend second only to Julie"
Monk smiled at her.
"I was really upset about the way you acted the other day however," Natalie said, "maybe I wouldn't have been so much so if it wasn't the anniversary of Mitch's death but-"
"Yesterday was the anniversary of Mitch's death," Adrian gasped suddenly feeling ashamed of his behavior yesterday
"Yes," she said, "but even if it weren't you should not have sided with the person who was being a jerk"
"I am sorry about that," he said sincerely, "I'll take care of it"
"I think," Natalie continued, "that you need to go to this"
She handed him a flyer on social skill classes.
"But Natalie," Monk said, "there's nothing wrong with my social skills"
"It's a 12 week conference," Natalie explained, "and Julie and I will come with you"
"Three months," Monk exclaimed, "that's not even an even number of months"
"Well it's 90 days," Natalie said, "and 90 is an even number"
Monk scowled but he agreed to go.
