    “Hi,” I reply. “I’m June.”

    Lang Leav
    “What was it like to love him? Asked Gratitude.
    It was like being exhumed, I answered, and brought to life in a flash of brilliance.

    What was it like to be loved in return? Asked Joy.
    It was like being seen after a perpetual darkness, I replied. To be heard after a lifetime of silence.

    What was it like to lose him? Asked Sorrow. There was a long pause before I responded:

    It was like hearing every goodbye ever said to me—said all at once.”
