                                 "'Yes.....Isn't it pretty to think so?'" Chapter 19, pg. 247


            After years of fawning over this toxic girl, this girl with no inch of remorse, who so carelessly crushes the souls of the men around her, I am done. After I got back from the war she was my lifeline. She was all I needed in this world and for the first time in my life I feel free of her. I’ve been waiting after her for years in hope of her learning to except my disability because once we were in a constant state of euphoria but I can’t recall that last time I was satisfied with where we stood. Us being in a relationship, it’s nice to think about sure but I’m done putting her on a pedestal. She has plenty of men to fawn over her, I’m sure her losing one will do no damage.
