"As we drove away, I looked at the door where I had first met him, and wondered, had I not gone for that cigarette break, if any of this would be happening now... it seemed impossible that it had worked out as it had. And although it was awful, it had, at times, been magical. It had been transformative beyond my wildest dreams. In that moment, I wouldn't have taken a day of it back."

"As I sat and watched my friends move around the table that last night, it became clear to me just how disconnected I had become from them, from my own life. I knew no way back, maybe because I didn't want one, maybe because I was so sick of myself and the inside of my skin that I could see nothing that would halt me as I moved further forward into inevitable self-destruction."

I have absolutely no clue what she sees in this man

She told her friends/ flatmates that she was dreading her birthday because her mom isn't alive to make it special anymore - one of the things she used to do was make heart-shaped pancakes in the morning - so they made and brought her heart-shaped pancakes for breakfast first thing when she woke up 🥲

2010. A new year, a fresh start. Things were about to happen, I felt it, although I had no idea just what was coming. If you'd told me then, I would never have believed you.

The suspense of everything and how good the writing is makes me obsessed already.
