Cousin Quote by Rachel Vincent

“But all I said, as I dug a five from my pocket to pay for my soda, was, "You have a friend?" Tod scowled. "Well, I wouldn't call him a friend according to the traditional definition, but in the sense that he imposes on me constantly and isn't afraid to point out my flaws, I'd say he qualifies."…” quote by Rachel Vincent

"Sounds more like a cousin.”
