“Our hands were almost touching. Almost touching. Each atom in the air between us was electric. God, everything mattered so much.”

“What I wanted was for there to be a rocket siren now. Right now. A siren would crack the world open. That’s what I wanted. No more questions about history, justice, or power imbalances. Let it all evaporate. When the sirens were singing, I did not have to ask myself how I was changed, or if I could ever change back. There was one imperative: find shelter. To be afraid was to be blameless. It felt simple and clean. It felt good.”

“Nothing had ever felt this good. Nothing in my whole life had ever felt as good as being welcomed not just into a family but into a people. How could I go? I couldn’t go. Please, I whispered in my heart, please let me stay. This is praying.”
