“He stared at me. "She liked you, boy." The intensity of his voice and eyes made me blink.
"Yes," I said.
"She did it for you, you know."

than cherry smoke came out of his mouth.”

“Of course we did other things too. We walked. We talked. We rode bikes.
Though I had my driver's license, I bought a cheap secondhand bicycle so
I could ride with her. Sometimes she led the way, sometimes I did. Whenever
we could, we rode side by side.

Pg. 107: She was bendable light: she shone around every corner of my day.

Pg. 107: She taught me to revel. She taught me to wonder. She taught me to laugh.
My sense of humor had always measured up to everyone else's; but timid

threw back my head and laughed out loud for the first time in my life”   the banner, the dessert ride it was all for her
