Catch My Fall
“By the time Halloween rolled around, I’d seen Stellan maybe twice since that morning he’d camped out on my porch. Yet, somewhere in that span of complete antisocial behavior, I’d managed to clock several hours on the phone with Evan Lambert.
I couldn’t quite express the comfort I felt when he and I spoke. There was solace there, when everything else felt like din. He didn’t know my failures unless I told them to him. He still knew me as the bright, shining, glorious version of myself; the o...ne he’d last spent time with before the night of his Halloween party – before I’d learned to be ambitious, before I learned how to succeed at life, before I’d set myself up for complete and utter disaster.

Evan and I shared that same ingrained memory, that mark that children of troubled parents have.MoreLess
