freedom needed
I needed to stop being what everyone thought I was.
kissing thinking heaven
I think Heaven will be like a first kiss.
autumn fruit aging
She looked like autumn, when leaves turned and fruit ripened.
light steps youth
Adolescence is like having only enough light to see the step directly in front of you.
stories way different
It had always fascinated him that she'd consumed so many words, that her head was full of stories, told a thousand different ways.
girl silly mean
Those silly girls had no idea what they were really celebrating. They had no idea what it took to bring Agatha and her friends together seventy-five years ago. The Women's Society Club had been about supporting one another, about banding together to protect one another because no one else would. But it had turned into an ugly beast, a means by which rich ladies would congratulate themselves by giving money to the poor. And Agatha had let it happen. All her life, it seemed, she was making up for things she let happen.
thinking people faces
He didn't think he belonged here, so she was making him face some uncomfortable facts. People adapt. People change. You can grow where you're planted.
falling-in-love love-you kids
That's the fairy tale. You meet, you fall in love, you kiss, and neither of you is revolted by it. You get married and have kids and live happily ever after.

daughter dream strong
She'd assumed she'd be married and have kids by this age, that she would be grooming her own daughter for this, as her friends were doing. She wanted it so much she would dream about it sometimes, and then she would wake up with the skin at her wrists and neck red from the scratchy lace of the wedding gown she'd dreamed of wearing. But she'd never felt anything for the men she'd dated, nothing beyond her own desperation. And her desire to marry wasn't strong enough, would never be strong enough, to allow her to marry a man she didn't love.
strange quiet unfinished
Everything was quiet, a strange sort of quiet that felt like an unfinished sentence.
long realizing long-time
It took me a long time to realize this: We get to choose what defines us.
swimming differences effort
He reached for her and kissed her. It was all at once passionate, as if there was too much in him to contain. He was immediately swept up in it. It took no effort, the difference between swimming on your own and being washed away in a flood.
