“What are you working on?" I ask.
"The last page." He gestures towards the table, where a pencilled sketch is being turned into inked brushstrokes. It's a drawing of us, in this caf茅, in this moment.
I smile up at him "It's beautiful. But what comes next?"
"The best part." And he pulls me back into his arms. "The happily ever after.”

“St. Clair gets a crush on Anna. He's torn between her and Ellie, and he spends so much time running between them that he hardly has time left for Josh. And the more time that Josh spends alone, the more he realizes how alone he actually is. All of his friends will be gone the next year. Josh grows increasingly antagonistic toward school, which makes Rashmi increasingly antagonistic toward him, which makes him increasingly antagonistic toward her. And she's upset because Elie dropped her as a friend, and Meredith is upset because now St. Clair likes two girls who aren't her, and Anna is upset because St. Clair is leading her on, and then St. Clair's mom gets cancer.
It's a freaking soap opera.”

“Y qu茅 isla desconocida es esa que t煤 buscas, Si te lo pudiese decir, entonces no ser铆a desconocida, A qui茅n has o铆do hablar de ella, pregunt贸 el rey, ahora m谩s serio, A nadie, En ese caso, por qu茅 te empe帽as en decir que ella existe, Simplemente porque es imposible que no exista una isla desconocida”

“Tendr谩s un oficio, una profesi贸n, como ahora se dice, Tengo, tuve, tendr茅 si fuera preciso, pero quiero encontrar la isla desconocida, quiero saber qui茅n soy yo cuando est茅 en ella, No lo sabes, Si no sales de ti, no llegas a saber qui茅n eres, El fil贸sofo del rey, cuando no ten铆a nada que hacer, se sentaba junto a m铆, para verme zurcir las medias de los pajes, y a veces le daba por filosofar, dec铆a que todo hombre es una isla, yo, como aquello no iba conmigo, visto que soy mujer, no le daba importancia, t煤 qu茅 crees, Que es necesario salir de la isla para ver la isla, que no nos vemos si no nos salimos de nosotros, Si no salimos de nosotros mismos, quieres decir, No es igual.”

“Oh that's Gaspare," Isla said sweeping the bones otto one side. They made a horrible clattering sound on the metal surface. "I'm having a hell of a time figuring out how he died, so I brought him home with me.”
