Don't run away. Im not running away. Im already gone. -Lena and Ethan

There is a point. I don't know what it is, but everything I've had, and everything I've lost, and everything I felt—it meant something.

I need to talk to Lena" There it was. I'd finally said it. The one thing that had kept me from being able to exhale all day. The thing that had made me feel like I couldn't sit down, like I couldn't stay. Like I had to get up and go somewhere, even if I had nowhere to go.

Don’t spit down my back and tell me it’s raining.

Stupid to the power of stupid.

The more I learned about the world I thought I knew and all the ones I didn't, the more everything threaded together, leading everywhere and nowhere at the same time.

The Sisters were Southern Baptist, and they went to church on Saturdays and Sundays, and most other days, too.
