Slash and Burn Quotes

“She’d have answered every question asked of her and, had she been told to, would even have helped dig up the earth just so she could say hello to him again and take him to a place where she could say farewell in a private ceremony. The pain of seeing his bones turned to something that looked more like branches withered by time couldn’t compare to the pain of not having anything of his to gather up and bury. Bury?”
― Claudia Hernández, Slash and Burn
