I listened as he spoke with a smile playing on my lips, if the roles were
reversed how would I be able to leave them? Why had I thought it would be
different for him? "No, it doesn't hurt," I said with a small shake of my

some funny new thing and I want to share it with you...but this? No...this
I'll treasure."
