Kindle Notes & Highlights
“I gave you my heart. It was always yours to break.”
“I lost you, baby. I lost you the morning I got into that cab and left you crying on the porch.” He pulls me against him, his embrace constricting and his mouth at my ear. “I’m not giving up. I’m letting you go.”
I have no doubt he’s my soul mate, the friend who will always touch me the deepest. But that doesn’t mean he’s the partner I’m supposed to spend my life with. That realization leaves an emptiness inside me that I don’t think will ever be filled by myself or anyone else.
He was right. When I fall in love, I never fall out. And neither does he. I know with every anguished breath, he will always love me.
“Be happy,” he mouths and gives me a soft dimpled smile. My lips curve upward, despite the terrible tremble in my chin. “Be safe.”
He stares at me as I stare at him, suspended in a moment as defining as the day we met. Our story began and ended with a smile, every second in between marked with love.
