““Miles, Rachel wrote me a letter. Im sorry. No. I cant do this. It hurts too much. No, no, no. My mother is taking me back to Phoenix. Were both staying there. Its all too complicated, even between the two of them now. Your father already knows. Clayton brings families together. Miles rips them apart. I tried to stay. I tried to love you. Every time I look at you, I see him. Everything is him. If I stay, everything will always be him. You know that. I know you understand that. I shouldnt blame you. But you do. Im so sorry. You stopped loving me with a letter, Rachel? Love, I feel it. All the ugly parts of it. Its in my pores. My veins. My memories. My future. Rachel.””
