Always have been. You’re the person who knows me best. The person who’s always looked out for me—even when I didn’t realize I needed you to. The person who knew I deserved more when I couldn’t see that on my own. We don’t just fit. We’re unique and interlocking pieces, with curves and edges that make it impossible for us to fit together with anyone else.”
