“She said the words I had secretly longed to hear for years. The words I had waited all this time to hold in my cupped hands. I felt a heavy burden simply burst, what mattered was I was with Homa, what mattered was I loved my friend and would love her until the end of our days.”

“I really want to keep kissing you, but…” Kennedy took a small step back and held the ring up. “Can I put this on you? I’m very excited and also very nervous. I’ve never done this before and I never want to do it again, so I have no idea if I’m doing it right.”

“If I look back at everything, my whole life, I can just lose it. Try, fail, try, fail, good, bad, fail. I get really overwhelmed and start crying, looking at how fucked up my life has been. Sometimes it feels like there’s nothing left, no purpose. Like there’s nothing I want to accomplish anymore. No goal, no anything. Zero. I have three remaining children, so I fight it, I fight it, I fight it, I fight it, I fight it. But it’s fucking there, alive and well. It’s a lion’s roar and I have to shut it down, shut it up. I’m surprised I’m still alive. I can’t believe I’m still standing. It feels wrong to be alive without Ben.”
