“She looked up at me with a look that told me everything, gave me a glimpse of everything I would be missing in one instant.”
“It's okay. You're going to save me, Miss Maylene." The girl gave her a genuine look of happiness. "I know it. I knew if I found you everything would be okay.”
“My mother gave me a disappointed look. Then I gave her one back. Mine was for everything, not just the sandwich.”
“They looked like two children," she told me. And that thought frightened her, because she'd always felt that only children are capable of everything.”
“When I saw her I was in love with her. Everything turned over inside of me. She looked toward the door, saw there was no one, then she sat on the side of the bed and leaned over and kissed me.”
“God Gave Me Nothing I WantedHe Gave Me Everything I Needed.”
