I knew that our time together was almost over, I asked her if she liked sports, she asked me if I liked chess, I asked her if she liked fallen trees, she went home with her father, the center of me followed her, but I was left with the shell of me, I needed to see her again, I couldn't explain my need to myself, and that's why it was such a beautiful need, there's nothing wrong with not understanding yourself. ✨ Jonathan Safran Foer (2013). Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close: A Novel, p.113, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
