“ And then I did what I had never done in his presence, much less in his arms. I cried. ”
The pain of not knowing what to do was exceeded only by that of knowing what I had done.
~ Erich Segal
What can you say about a twenty-five-year-old girl who died?
I wanted to keep looking at her because I wanted to never take my eyes from her, but still I had tolower my eyes, I was so ashamed that even now Jenny was reading my mind so perfectly.'Listen, that's the only goddamn thing I'm asking, Ollie. Otherwise, I know you'll be okay.' That thing in my gut was stirring again, so I was afraid to even speak the word 'okay.' I justlooked mutely at Jenny.
There was a brief silence. I think I heard snow falling.
