Sadie

by Courtney Summers

It was a terrible thing, sure, but we live in a world that has no shortage of terrible things. You can’t stop for all of them.

Sad, but true.

He has a hard face, a week’s worth of beard and deep crow’s feet I can’t believe he ever got from smiling too much. He looks like he would step out of the photograph just to hate you up close.

I love that description.

It’s different when you think someone’s always going to be around. You think you got all the time in the world to make it right.

Too true. A mistake I've made more than once.
