“You don’t get what it’s like to never be good enough, or what it’s like to be hurt, because they always protected you. They loved you no matter what. When you fucked up, you just had to flash a smile and they forgave you—you’ve never had to apologize. You’ve never had to work to make it better. You’ve always had people, Beau, so you don’t know what it’s like when they’re not there for you.”
