Kindle Notes & Highlights
New York City is a beautiful bitch dipped in glitter, giving you the finger while walking the runway in her Louboutins.
“Children and bored adults need to be entertained. Grown men living with purpose require time and quiet and energy.”
“You don’t even understand the power you’ve been given,” she’d say. “Don’t abuse it in anger. Gentleness is power under control.”
“I’m not this way with anyone else,” I say softly. “I know it sounds crazy since we don’t know each other that well, and haven’t known each other long, but I’m only this way with you.”
“I’m not sure you’ve even heard of this guy.” “Who is it?” she asks, suspicion and skepticism mingling in one glance. “Grip?” I ask innocently. By the way her mouth drops open and her eyes stretch like saucers, I’m guessing she has.
Grip!!!!
“And what do you do, Jade?” “I write music,” Jade says and shrugs. “Been doing it all my life, but kinda new at getting paid for it. So far, so good.”
Wait grips jade?!
“Oh, you got threats now, Paul?” I ask in a dangerously soft tone. “You don’t want to threaten her, because when you threaten her, you threaten me. And when you threaten me, I attack.”
