There’s no doubt that Tait is in my life, and will be in one form or another now, forever. We’ll have to see each other at holidays, at minimum. I’ll have to meet the guy she ends up bringing home one day. I’ll have to swallow this love like glass, and I’ll have to be her friend. While the thought of not loving her rakes its claws down my brain, the thought of not knowing her at all clogs my throat. And shit, this is not how I remember heartbreak.
