Rachel Kelly, Luke Harrison, Annabelle Harrison, Ben HarrisonGood. That's very good. What you're grown-up enough to know. Is that people. Can do two things at once. Okay? You can miss me. And. Take me with you. When you're in trouble. Have me there. When you fall in love. Have me there. You can. That's how we go on, you know. Forever. Because someone takes us along. On your wedding night. When your babies are born. I want to be there. Will you take me?
You know I don't need another person in this family making me feel like an idiot...your ex-wife's doing a bang up job and I have to face it every Tuesday and Thursday and every other goddamn weekend and I just don't know how the hell you were married to her for so goddamn long!

You swore. You owe me a quarter. Did you remember my egg carton? I told you I needed my egg carton for seed planting today.
Well. We were less than friends, I guess. And more. We were never...girlfriends, we never dished. That wasn't. What we had.
