Why do you think I came here today? It’s because I love you! I’ve only ever loved you!” Adam yanks me to him, slanting his mouth down on mine roughly until we have to stop and catch our breath.

Wait a bit," my mind must have whispered, "Soon you will understand that you were Mademba Diop's blue-eyed enemy. You killed him with your words, you disemboweled him with your words, you devoured the insides ofhis body with your words.”
