“You are the answer to every prayer I've offered. You are a song, a dream, a whisper, and I don't know how I could have lived without you for as long as I have. I love you, Aliie, more than you can ever imagine. I always have, and I always will.”

It draws people together because only those who are comfortable with each other can sit without speaking. This is the great paradox.”
