All these visits, all this talking, all this strolling down fucking memory lane. It doesn't help. And you know why it doesn't help? Because everything that's happened - it lives so deep inside me that the only way I can ever get rid of it is to die." "That's not true, Andres." "It is true. Happiness isn't in the cards for everyone, Grace.””
