Nadine started, "Babe, there was a famous philosopher who once said that a person often dies twice-once when they stop loving and once when they are no longer loved. When someone no longer loves or is no longer loved, they experience a kind of death. It's not a physical death, but a spiritual one.

It means you've stopped hoping to be loved, and you begin to understand that life is often about learning to live with oneself. Instead of resisting it, you accept and learn to coexist with it."

Everything changed when she cacross that quote. It inspired her to embrace solitude and accept the fact that she wasn't loved-and that she no longer loved him.
Even though she spoke with an air of nonchalance, Avery could feel the bitterness behind her words. She walked over and wrapped her arms around Nadine. "Don't worry. It?s not
