There no longer was any distinct between rich and poor, notables and the others; we were all people condemned to the same fate—still unknown.

What did you see in her that wasn't in me?

Brown hair, green eyes, perfect lips, and perfect thighs.

What did you love about her that you didn't love about me?

Her loving smile, perfect teeth, adorable laugh, and chubby cheeks.

What made her so different from me?

A beautiful girl, beautiful clothes, a gorgeous brain, a girl that glows. 

Why did you leave her and not me?

A wild personality, an adventurous girl, a humorous heart, and a dangerous world.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
