“I love you, Cecelia Reznik, and I always will. And because I love you, I will let you go.” 😭😭😭

Cece had the biggest heart he’d ever seen, and he was lucky to have a piece of it, even if it broke his own every day.

“You know, Argarians marry for life, we don’t have divorce or dissolution of marriage. Those vows are forever. What I promised you, I will always promise you. What I promised you can’t be promised to another. But I will try to find new things in myself to promise.”

“This ring and this scar are bookends to our love. The start and the end, both beautiful and ugly. I like to keep the truth of that close at heart.”

Rainer reflecting on when he knew he’d fallen in love with Cece…when his mother was dying and what he did for him.
💓❤️‍🩹**my heart**💔💞

“…Other days she cant get enough, like it’s the glue holding her together. Those are the good days — when I can let my live exist in it’s true form — something large enough to swallow both of us.”

“Every day she decides if she can let me love her. It’s hard for her. I guess that’s the immeasurable cost of all we’ve been through. Some days she wants to fight it and I have to make my love smaller — crush it down into something she can accept…”
