The scars keep remembering.

Marcel Proust

I liked watching them, all three of them around my truck. I wanted time to stop because everything seemed so simple, Dante and Legs falling in love with each other, Dante's mom and dad remembering something about their youth as they examined my truck, and me, the proud owner.

It was as if my eyes were a camera and I was photographing the moment, knowing that I would keep that photograph forever.

Albert Camus
