“His name is Julian Janus Marquet, but I’m going to call him Jory.” Both Chris and Paul heard my thin whisper. I was so tired, so sleepy. “Why would you call him Jory?” asked Paul, but it wasn’t me who had the strength to answer. It was Chris who understood my reasoning. “If he had been blond, she would have named him Cory—but the J will stand for Julian, and the rest for Cory.” Our eyes met and I smiled. How wonderful to be understood, and never have to explain.” — V.C. Andrews

Both Chris and Paul heard my thin whisper. I was so tired, so sleepy.
“Why would you call him Jory?” asked Paul, but it wasn’t me who had the strength to answer. It was Chris who understood my reasoning.
“If he had been blond, she would have named him Cory—but the J will stand for Julian, and the rest for Cory.”
Our eyes met and I smiled.
How wonderful to be understood, and never have to explain.
