“There was a little frown between AJ’s eyebrows, and I knew this wasn’t the happy ending she wanted, so with a smile, I took her hand.
“It’s fine, AJ. I’m good. Just because I’m not whole doesn’t mean I’m not complete.”
She blinked up at me and squinted. “How can you be complete without being whole?”
My eyebrows pulled together as I tried to remember my mom’s phrasing of it.
“Some people aren’t meant to be whole,” I said carefully. “But they can be complete, because when you’re complete, you’re saying this is what I have, and it’s still good. You accept the parts of you that are going to stay empty. Nothing’s ever going to fill up that hole. No one’s ever going to be my little brother besides Cole, but that’s fine. Because everything else I have in my life makes me complete.” I watched her process my words with a reluctance that made me laugh. “I have you. And because of you, I have Holland.”
“And Iain.”
I laughed. “And Iain.”
