“But you remind me so much of her.""I-I do?""Yes." Addie gifted him with a smile."Because I love you both.”

“I love her.""Then you do not love the Lord.""Yes, I love both of them.""You cannot." "I do.”

“This is how it works. I love the people in my life, and I do for my friends whatever they need me to do for them, again and again, as many times as is necessary. For example, in your case you always forgot who you are and how much you're loved. So what I do for you as your friend is remind you who you are and tell you how much I love you. And this isn't any kind of burden for me, because I love who you are very much. Every time I remind you, I get to remember with you, which is my pleasure.”

“Whenever I see your smiling face, I have to smile myself, because I love you, yes I do.”

“I do. I still love him so much. And I feel so worthless because he doesn’t love me anymore.”

“I love you, Mallory," he said very quietly, very seriously. "So damn much."Warmth and affection and need and so much more rushed her. "I know.""You know?""Yes.""Well, hell," he said with a small smile and a shake of his head. "You might have told me and saved me a lot of time.""How about I tell you something else?" she said. "I love you, too.”
