Gayle Forman
Image
There are like twenty people in that waiting room right now. Some of them are related to you. Some of them are not. But we're all your family.' She stops now. Leans over me so that the wisps of her hair tickle my face. She kisses me on the forehead. 'You still have a family,' she whispers.

Willem, I suspect deep down you know exactly why you're here, exactly what you want, but you're unwilling to the wanting, let alone the having. Because both of those propositions are terrifying.
Gayle Forman

Willem holds my wrist for a long moment, looking at that birthmark. Then he lifts it to his mouth. And though his lips are soft and his kiss is gentle, it feels like a knife jamming into the electrical socket. It feels like the moment when I go live

Who says I breathe music? Who says I even breathe?

The little things that happen. Sometimes they're insignificant other times, they change everything.
