(Twenty-eight seconds, that’s all it takes. She marks it down in her head.)

His shadow follows him.

“What do you want?" he asks. "For me to have ended my life with yours, even though you weren’t really gone?”
“Yes,” she says, unconvincingly. “Because then I would have known that you cared.”

Summary
They begin their lives together on July 18th in a large, brick house near the water in Grenada, Mississippi. They are given a childhood of warmth — of welcome curiosity, of hushed secrets, of delicate, fragile serenity under the watchful eye of ancient trees, blessed with the gift of never knowing profound, natural solitude.
"There is you," Aleksander always says, "and there is me."
They begin their death together too, in a tiny, one-bedroom apartment on the southern tip of Middlesex County up in New Jersey, where they attended university the way they did everything else: joined by the hip.
Theirs is a history still being written. Sometimes in pencil, sometimes in ink.

Inside the Rocket’s lusty romance with Hollywood’s new It Girl!"

She's had ample opportunity and platform to make something worthwhile before now, and simply hasn't."
