Chapter 41 The Whats-ifs

• I lay awake that night wondering what my best friend's brother's life would have been like had Taylor not passed away. Even though I knew it wasn't a good idea to think about "what ifs," I couldn't help but feel that this guy was only a ghost of the remarkable man he could have become.
• Tyrone Davis was left with an unbearable hole in his chest where his heart used to be, even though he could have had everything. It didn't take a blind person to realize that Taylor had been everything to him and that when you take away someone's greatest asset, it breaks that person. They are left destroyed and reduced to their knees, unable to go on without their loved ones. Most people let their grief consume them for a few months before realizing that life is still going on and the clock is still ticking. Only then do they awaken from their terrible daze and gently return to their previous way of life.
• It took me three months.
