She says, “I need you; I need you so fucking bad,” and then she begins to cry hot tears onto my skin as she kisses my neck softly and sniffles. It is a strange thing for her to say, so far removed from a regular woman’s ‘I love you,’ and yet probably more true.
So I pull her a little closer, kiss the hard spot between her perfectly plucked eyebrows, and after a deep breath, I say, “I think I need you too.”
— A quirky roller coaster ride. Had its ups and downs, though mostly downs to be honest. But it’s a hopeful book, about finding silver linings in whatever shit life throws at you.
