102 " You can’t make me believe something that I know isn’t true.” There’s a flicker behind his eyes—maybe he’s thinking, I already have, plenty of times. “Not anymore,” I say. “And do you know what it’s called, when you do that? It’s called gaslighting. It’s a form of abuse. Telling me things aren’t the way I can see them. "
103 " É preciso dizer uma coisa sobre o desespero: ele deixa a cabeça da gente muito mais aberta. "

113 " I'm smiling like a love-struck teenager. "
114 " It was never home until you were there. "
115 " It's weird how easily you can get to know someone from the traces they leave behind. "
116 " Now, huddled in a corner with three Aldi bags of knitting needles, crochet hooks, and wool, accompanied by an ex-hippie and a sardine sandwich, I can no longer deny the fact that my life has taken a turn for the worse. "
117 " I wake with a jolt that sends a shock of pain through my ankle. Crying out, I look around me. Floral wallpaper. Am I at home? Who’s that man in the chair by the door, reading … “Twilight?” Leon blinks at me, putting the book down in his lap. “You went from unconscious to judgmental very quickly there. "
118 " More silence, but it’s Mo-style silence, which means it is somehow incredibly reassuring. Like an audio hug. He doesn’t need words, Mo – his arts are beyond them. "
