“I wondered how long it could last. Maybe someday, years from now.If the pain would decrease to the point where I could bear it.I would be able to look back on those few short months that would always be the best of my life.

More than I'd asked for, more than I'd deserved. Maybe someday I'd be able to see it that way.”
― Stephenie Meyer, New Moon
