Just for the Summer (Part of Your World, #3)

“I didn’t have the luxury of being like that. I had to be invisible.”

You can still love someone that you’ve decided not to speak to anymore. You can still wish them well and hope for the best for them. Choosing a life without them doesn’t mean you stop caring about them. It just means that you can’t allow them to harm you anymore.

Even if it was just a tiny moment in a long lifetime of moments, I was happy to be a part of it.

But for some reason I needed her to know it anyway. Maybe because her truth was hers, and mine was mine and I missed her and deserved to say it out loud.

My lack of permanence was my protection. I left people and places, so I didn’t have to play. If I didn’t play, I couldn’t lose.
