Grabbed Arm Quote by Kellie McAllen
““You don’t have to buy me groceries, Griffin. I’m fine.” He grabbed my arm, his voice pleading. “I want to, Lexus. Please. And you’re not fine, and it’s okay to admit it. I’ve been there, you know? I’ve lived with some crappy families, and I wished someone would’ve noticed and offered to help. Will you please let me help you?””
