“Don’t apologize for something that can’t be helped. I don’t love you despite it, Finnian; I love you because you’re you. I love you in the same way you love me. Wholly. And it breaks my heart that you were made to feel broken because someone couldn’t love you through it. It makes me sick that instead of comforting you, she sought solace in someone else. I promise it doesn’t bother me, and I promise I’ll never think less of you.”
