Kindle Notes & Highlights
“And whatever you think of me—whatever you think you understand about me—I am only trying to help.”
YES FINALLY YOURE STANDING UP FOR YOURSELF
Sam’s anger flares. “You know what your problem is?” “Yes. The list is long.”
Lmao
“You and Nouria don’t know how to take constructive criticism.”
BRO I WAS JUST GONNA SAY THIS THEY LITERALLY CANT SEE THAT THEIR BEHAVIOR IS QUESTIONABLE AND IF SAM REALLY WANTED TO APOLOGIZE SHE WOULD SEE HOW NOURIA CHOSE TO DO WHAT SHE DID WAS WRONG. Even if it was part of a larger plan it was went about insensitively
“Nouria thought it was imperative that we convince you,” Sam says stiffly, “more than anyone else, that you wouldn’t be getting married today.
There was still no need to treat him in such a manner
He sniffs me, nosing the palm of my hand, and I pull away before the beast decides to lick me.
LET HIM KISS YOU
It reads: DOG. “That’s what you said you wanted to call him, right?” Yara is still smiling. “Dog?”
Hahaahahhaah
I sense the approach of a familiar presence; his hand lands on my arm, and for the first time, I don’t flinch. “Hey, man,” Kenji says, materializing at my side in a surprisingly sharp suit. “You ready?
Awwwwww
I turn sharply to face him. “You’re not coming with me?” Kenji goes stock-still at that, his mouth slightly agape.
IM GONNA CRY
“Yeah,” he says finally. “Of course I’m coming with you.”
My INFANT PREMATURE BABY HEART CANT HANDLE IT
“Hey, man,” Kenji whispers beside me. “You all right?” I shake my head an inch. “What’s wrong?” I can feel Kenji studying my face. “Oh—shit—are you having a panic attack?” “Not yet,”
this is so wholesome, I’m sorry but these two are besties and need each other
The sound of his voice is a strange lifeline. The more he speaks, filling my head with easily digestible nonsense, I feel my heart rate start to slow, the iron fist around my lungs beginning, slowly, to unclench.
I love this so much
And it’s got, like, these little tulle sleeves that aren’t really sleeves—they sort of fall off the shoulder— Hey, is this helping?” “Yes,” I say, drawing in a full breath for the first time in minutes.
:')
“Of course you know what it’s called,” I say, still staring straight ahead. “Everyone knows it.” “Well I don’t know it.” “This is the work of German composer Johann Pachelbel,”
Hahahahhahahaha Aaron pauses his panic attack and to explain to Kenji the origins of Pachelbels Canon and how he’s dumb for not knowing it.
“I told you it was a nice dress,” Kenji whispers. “Kenji.” “Yes?” “Thank you,” I say, still staring at Ella. “For everything.” “Anytime,”
Me trying not to cry in the middle of my living room right now
“This is the beginning of a new chapter for all of us, man. For the whole world. This wedding is making history right now. You know that, right? Nothing is ever going to be the same.”
I adore these characters with my whole heart
I’m smiling now, smiling like the most ordinary of men, staring at the most extraordinary woman I’ve ever known. “Believe me,” I whisper. “I do.”
My chest is aching :')
