Chapter 111 Talk Continues

• Tyrone's voice trembled as he said, "I told her everything, Sera," emphasizing how much we had been through together before he spoke to his sister. "I told her everything that had ever happened between us, hoping - heck, I even prayed - that she would understand and approve of the possibility of us dating. I even told her about that Valentine's card I gave you when we were nine."
• Tyrone flinched, opened both eyes and gave me the saddest smile I had ever seen on his face.
• "She didn't understand. She screamed at me and started crying that I was going to hurt you. I tried to tell her I would never do anything to cause you any harm, but she seemed hell-bent on protecting you. I kept asking her why; I wanted to know the real reason why she wouldn't let me date you, but she kept repeating that you'd been through enough misery to last you a lifetime."
