Chapter 17

• Starting over is difficult, and I think that something we must learn is that each person who passes through our life marks us in some way, or well, that is the conclusion I have come to after thinking about things a bit.
• Although I know that Theo and I were only together because he asked me to, and I didn't want to make him cry, I think that he was someone important in my life, in some way he helped me not to sink into a depression in which I was falling, in which every day when I saw myself in the mirror I couldn't recognize myself.
• Theo arrived at the exact moment I needed him, maybe not in the best way, because he was able to arrive as a friend, not exactly as a partner for me; but he did it that way, and even though he stopped talking to me when he got mad at me, it's strange to think about him, I don't like to remember how he looked like he would cry at any moment when he told me we broke up.
