Famous Dari A. Malaunt Quotes

That light in your heart is almost gone, but it’s still there. It just… it just needs a spark to resurrect.”

“She kissed him on the lips, but it looked like they just touched their mouths for one second and then pulled away. Owen's eyes went a bit brighter from the dark brown and now were shinning on the sunlight with excitement and happiness. He scratched his head nervously but could not help it and smiled. Seeing all of this, for some reason, made me cry, I know that we were no longer such close friends with him, but I was happy for him.”
