Chapter One: 1984
I'm seventeen years old.
I don't know then that one day I won't be seventeen. I don't know that youth doesn't last, that it's only a moment, and then it disappears and by the time you finally realize it, it's too late. It's finished, vanished, lost.
20, it's only a moment.Kitabı okudu

when he looked up, he was surprised to see that cleo's eyes had glazed with a thin film of tears. "that sounds nice" she said quietly.
"and you and i didn't get that, not because we didn't deserve it, we just got dealt something else. but the people who did get that love, they grew up to be different from us. more secure. maybe they're not shiny or successful as you and i feel have to be. but it's not because they're not interesting. they just don't feel they have to do the tap dance, you know? they don't have prove themselves all the time to be loved. because they always were."

Chapter Seventeen
Imagine all the people you meet in your life. There are so many. They come in like waves, trickling in and out with the tide. Some waves are much bigger and make more of an impact than others. Sometimes the waves bring with them things from deep in the bottom of the sea and they leave those things tossed onto the shore. Imprints against the grains of sand that prove the waves had once been there, long after the tide recedes.

Her eyes widened, the hazel and emerald breathtakingly pretty this close. She laughed softly. “But I was arrested. I suck as a thief.”
“You’re the best thief.” I kissed her nose, her eyelids, her cheeks, and finally her ear where I whispered, “You’ve done what no one else ever could.
“You’ve stolen my heart.”

“I’m sorry.” His face darkened with sincerity. “I know I didn’t have a right to talk about you like a trophy to be won from your father. And I’m sorry for warning Mr. Hobson to keep his son away from you.” He smiled tightly. “I would say I did that for your benefit, but really, I did it for me.” His eyes fell on my chest. “I don’t do well with competition.”

“I’m so sorry, Nila.” Burying my face in her hair, I clutched her hard. “So sorry for everything—for what I am, for what I demand of you, for the things I can’t fix.”
