“If Yui had to describe this feeling, this pain, she would say it was like the stabbing contractions that preceded childbirth, the wonder of the process she had experienced when her daughter was born: closing to open again, contracting to then dilate, clamp and hold, then spread your legs wide and push. A total paradox, essentially, like one of those things you only find when you've stopped looking for it. Like love, true love, or children that won't come.” — Laura Imai Messina
