Garage Door Quote by Jay Asher
““The garage door began to lift and, in the glow of the red taillights, the silhouette of a man pushed the heavy door all the way up. He got in the car, backed it down the driveway, and drove off. Why he didn’t stop, why he didn’t ask why I was standing there staring at his house,””
