Parachutes Quote by Suzanne Collins

“Trying to shout her name above the roar. I’m almost there, almost to the barricade, when I think she hears me. Because for just a moment, she catches sight of me, her lips form my name. And that’s when the rest of the parachutes go off.” quote by Suzanne Collins
