She had called a lot of places home, but it was for the lack of a better word. She never really felt at home anywhere.
She laughed a lot. It was a sound that warmed him up. A sound that made him realise how quiet his life had become before. A sound that made him wonder why he had valued the silence so much.
โFact is, I just donโt have room in my life for her.โ
โYouโve got the room; youโre just too chickenshit to make it.โ
โI wanted to be memorable.โ
โBaby, it would take more than all the time in the world for me to forget you.โ
