Quotes by Melissa Cummins (?)

“I know some things may have changed about how you see us, but for us, they haven’t. I want you to be happy, to feel safe and treasured. I want you to smile, and whatever makes you feel that way, even if you decide not to speak to me tomorrow, will be something I support. I will always support you, always.”
― Melissa Cummins, Night Shade

― Melissa Cummins, Night Shade
