ok… so… banger of a chapter ending. i had to go back just to be sure i’d read it correctly, and when i had, i had to take some deep breaths. i don’t know why i found it to be so shocking, but it really hit.

“It’s a funny thing. The person we fall in love with, we hardly ever call by their name. Because somehow it’s just so obvious that it’s you I’m talking to, that it’s you in always thinking of. Who else?”

“Were you scared of him?”
“Yes. It’s hard to be little.”
“It’s hard to be everything.”

“You can’t love someone out of addiction, all of the oceans are the tears of those who have tried. We’re not allowed to die for our children, the universe won’t let us, because then there wouldn’t be any mothers left.”
