Gigi Quotes

“Tenderness, that most alien and disconcerting of emotions, swelled and billowed in her. She picked up a cherry and stared down at the soft, bright-red fruit. “I love you.”

Retracing our steps the past two weeks and wondering how on earth it is that I could fall in love in a matter of days. But I did.
