Kindle Notes & Highlights
It was a beautiful thing to watch your best friend be loved in the way you know she deserves.
Still, when I looked at them, I felt a gut punch. Not hurt anymore, but something different. The sense that when I looked at them, I saw the type of life I’d really like to have.
I wasn’t mad that she didn’t want me, because she gave me to someone who loved me more than anyone else in the world and showed me that every single day—plus she gave me my copper hair. And I was grateful that she had semi-decent taste in men, because my dad was the best man I’d ever known. Because of him, my life was full. He was the only parent I needed—as long as we had each other, we were okay.
It was probably one of the best things that had ever happened: Teddy wanted to tell her best friend about us, which meant that we meant something.
