But I wanted to be the one he turned to when he got back. More than anything, I wanted to be his safe harbor, the person he felt secure with. It should be my arms that held him and shielded him when he felt threatened. Because Grant would be all those things for me. He already had been. So why couldn’t I return the favor? Why wasn’t I all those things for him? Why couldn’t he count on me the same way I could count on him?
