“Every third step I ran, my breath exploded out of me all in a rush. One step to suck in another cold lungful. One step to let it excape. One step of not breathing.”
“One step too late. Another disappointment, breathing in crawl space, leads to another messy ending.”
“I stepped into the bookshop and breathed in that perfume of paper and magic that strangely no one had ever thought of bottling.”
“Grief is forever. It doesn't go away; it becomes part of you, step for step, breath for breath.”
“Every breath you take is a step towards death.”
“Every decision you make takes you one step closer to being wealthy ... or one step further away.”
