“He’s a year shorter than me, but he’s a foot younger. I love him like the brother of an only child.”
“I love him. He’s not just a star, he’s the whole fucking sky to me.”
“He’s only two years younger, but that doesn’t mean I’m not old enough to be his father. I grew up fast. Ah, but that’s life, no?”
“I love Jere more than anybody. He’s my brother, my family. I hate myself for doing this. But when I see you two together, I hate him too.” His voice broke.“Don’t marry him. Don’t be with him. Be with me.”
“I bet He’s only sad for the part of me that belonged to Him.”
“He’s had ten years to make you fall in love with him. I haven’t had ten weeks! Tell me how that’s fair!”
