"Are you coming back to Lennon's tonight?" she asked with a hopeful tone in her voice.
"Do you want me to?" I asked, knowing the answer was yes.
"I want that... I think Lennon does too, but I need you to be patient with me because I'm fighting the doubts in my head."
"I'd think you were crazy if you weren't, darlin'. It's a lot to get your head around. You had no inkling why Lennie behaved the way he did."
"No, and that gives me a little comfort in a sick way."
"Yeah?"
"Yeah, there were times when I thought he simply didn't love me enough to stay with me, but now I've had time to think about it, and see how he is with you, I know it was because he loved me. He tried to give me a way out if I needed it."
"Sounds crazy when you say it like that."
