MUST. REMEMBER. TO BREATHE.

“Oh, I was so tired of wondering what men were thinking! Why did they not say?”

"I saw all of those thoughts coming to him in a flood. And then I saw him try to build up a dam against them."

I couldn't help but smile at him. “Thanks for defending me.”

His eyes found mine again, and I saw the years and years of our friendship there within them. “Always.”

The garden was dark, but I saw immediately that it was not unoccupied (as the occupant was sitting and reading by the bright light of a torch).

“Oh,” I said. “I didn’t know you were out here.”

Margaret Wilkes looked up from her book. “That’s rather the idea.”

*happy sigh*

Was fangirling last night to my niece about this book because I needed to not be alone in my present reading delight 😆💜

“I rather think people will wonder at it,” I said tentatively.

He leaned across the table to me, saying in a stage whisper, “We needn't tell them.”

*reminds herself to breathe*

MY WORD, this book gets to my emotions😭

“One does get tired of always being cheerful, doesn’t one?” I said then.

Gerald sighed. “One does. At least, most ones,” he smirked. “For some ones, I believe constant cheerfulness is quite natural.”

I narrowed my eyes. “I don’t trust those ones.”

Gerald laughed, leaning towards me to whisper, “Neither do I.”
