“The first day of the rest of my life, and I’m not sure I want tobe here. I know I should be thanking somebody for this, but I reallydon’t feel like it. Instead, I wish they hadn’t bothered.”
“Tired from my all-nighter with my friends, I just kept walking, my head bursting with their conversations, the things I had learned-Laura had had to take the morning-after pill-but none were as loud as the conversations I was having with myself in my head. That, I could never switch off. I don’t think I’d ever thought so much, and talked so little, in my life.”
“Every single time you crossed over for me and met me on my side. I realize now, I don't think I ever met you in the middle. And I don't think I ever once said that you for that.”
