Kingston Quotes

“We wanted to save those we loved without them growing and learning through their own hardships and life’s struggles, not realizing that in the absence of pain one can think they’re invincible. When in reality, they’ve been saved so many times that they’ve never had to feel pain. Saving them conditioned them to think that life is perfect, even when they see others around them struggling. Because that struggle hadn’t touched them yet, they believe it doesn’t truly exist.”
― M. Monique, Kingston

“One thing I want you to always know, I’ain goin’ nowhere. And if you try and take ya ass anywhere, just know I’m comin’ for you.” Leaning back, I giggled. “What if I get tired of you, Kingston?” “Then you gon’ take ya ass a nap, wake back up and realize you really wasn’t tired of me, the fuck.”
― M. Monique, Kingston
