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

by Abby Jimenez

No fucking way. No. Fucking. Way. My heart was pounding in my throat. She was sitting on a bus bench. A Toilet King bus bench. She was here.

“Okay. Justin?” I was beaming. “Yeah?” “You’re right. Minnesota is beautiful.”

The moment Emma came into view, my entire world slipped into slow motion. My brain took a screenshot. I felt the moment freeze and save. She was beautiful.

“Why not forgive? In a world where you can choose anger or empathy, always choose empathy, Justin.

Sometimes the best way to show love or be kind to someone is to meet them where they are.”

I think sometimes the key to happiness is framing those things in a different way.”

“If you can choose anger or empathy, always choose empathy, Justin. It’s so much healthier than anger. For both of you.”
