Afraid Quote by Emma Chase
““Why are you afraid all the time?” he asks, not in a nasty way but with simple curiosity. “I’m not. I just like . . . consistency.” “Consistency is boring.” “It’s safe. If you know what’s coming, you’re never caught off guard.” Henry rolls his eyes. “Why are you sad all the time?” I ask. “I’m not sad—I’m pitiful. There’s a difference.””
