Reading Before Ever After and this struck me… this is Dex talking to Shelley…
I know that the time will come when her voice won’t be as crystal clear in my head. But even when every detail has dulled, I know that I’ll always have something that not even time can take away. Pain.
…
When I’ve forgotten everything else, I’ll feel that ache … that tightness in my throat … that heaviness in my chest … and know that I loved a woman once and she loved me back. It’s proof that I existed and so did she.
Ugh. Good thing I have crystal clear videos and photos so it’s not just Pain.
