• Mil veces hoy he empezado a abrir la boca, he empezado a chillar: "¿Puede decirme...? Pero entonces miraba en el asiento delantero, el temblor silencioso de mi madre, el perfil sombrío de mi padre, las bolsas lúgubres bajo sus ojos, y todas las preguntas que podría hacer me parecían abusivas. Asalto y agresión, un signo de interrogación utilizado como un garrote. Mis padres son viejos y frágiles. Tendría que ser un desalmado para querer hacerles daño.

• "Don't let go!" he orders. Harper's hand is dry and soothing, while mine is sweaty with fear. We've never held hands before. I think about what it means in the village when boys and girls only a few years older then Harper and me wander around with their hands clasped together. They're always peering dreamily into each other's eyes, sneaking sky kisses...and soon after, there's a wedding.
