““Chad’s voice interrupting her thoughts was getting more annoying by the day. Spending so much time with him over the years had obviously affected her brain, and all those pretty words he’d told her were starting to feel like shackles inside the recesses of her mind. It had been nice to hear that she was amazing all the time, but he didn’t treat her like she was amazing. If she was being honest, it never even felt like Chad had the capacity to truly love another person. It was more important to be everyone’s something than to be somebody’s everything.””
