“Well, we were so young when we met. We didn’t know yet that you’re a new version of yourself every day. Which means that every day, you’re in a new relationship with a new person. You have to keep checking in. And we stopped doing that.”

“Even so, I wouldn’t take back loving him for the world. I grew into myself while falling for him. Our love painted my world with color. And loving him led to loving you, Nico. I’ll always have love in my heart for him. But love isn’t a bucket, baby. It’s a well. And I have so much more love left to share.”

“How can you still believe in love?” She takes a long sip of her tea, then hums quietly. “Because, sweet cheeks, love is matter. Love is the stuff the world is made of. Love is the reason to get up in the morning and the way to sleep soundly at night. My marriage ended, but that wasn’t the end of love. It was an evolution. Because love doesn’t just disappear into thin air. No, sir. When I got divorced, I took all that love I had for your father and put it into myself.”

Okayy now I NEED a session with Nick's mom like yesterday!!!!
