Read With Yora

“We must remember to say what’s in our hearts aloud because we can never know if it’ll be the last time we’ll ever get the chance.”

“Robbie.”

Grass.

Lake water.

Sunshine. So much sunshine. As if the world was on fire.”

“You, Kelly.
Always you.
You are the best thing that’s ever happened to me.
You’re my first memory. Mom was holding you, and I wanted to take you for myself, hide you away so no one would hurt you.
You’re my first love. I knew that when you would always smile when you saw me, and it was like staring into the sun.
You’re my heart.
You are my soul.”
― T.J. Klune, Heartsong

“Livingstone,” Gavin said again, almost stubbornly. “I call him Livingstone. Not Dad. I had….”

“You had,” I said, squeezing his hand.

He glanced at me quickly before looking back down at the table. “I had Dad. Mom too. Not real parents. But still good.”

“What happened to them?” Robbie asked quietly.

“Dead,” Gavin said in a dull voice. “Long time ago. Still human when it happened. Car accident. I didn’t know what to do. After. Then I was wolf. Then I was Omega. And now I’m here.”

All those years broken down into a few short sentences. I wondered if I would ever know all that had happened to him or if it would be locked away in his mind. Memories hurt when you let them.”
