5.0
"My memories are running away from me my love, like when you try to separate oil and water. I'm constantly reading a book with a missing page and it's always the most important one."
" You have never become ordinary to me my love, you are electric shocks and fire."
"I miss you unbearably."
"To get home, that's the road that's getting longer and longer every morning."
"You were my shortcut...Death isn't fair..
I miss all our most ordinary things...I miss you then, darling sleepy you. Miss you there. We lived an extraordinary ordinary life, an ordinarily extraordinary life."
"She was a force of nature. Everything I am came from her, she was my big bang."
"Are you scared you're going to forget her?
Very...
I'll tell you about her when you forget grandpa. First thing every morning. First of all, I'll tell you about her.
Grandpa squeezes his arm, 'Tell me that we danced Noah Noah. Tell me that that's what it is like to fall in love. Like you don't have room for yourself and your own feet.
I promise."
"It's an awful thing to miss someone that's still there."
"It's a never ending rage being mad at the universe."
"Your mother is waiting for us, I'm sure she is worried."
"A great brain can never be kept on earth."

The tears I've shed over this novella, my chest hurts.
I miss my grandpa!
