Things that have to do with family.
She wants to ask, was it-]

i'm really really sorry for

you know
you kind of
remind me a little of him
josh
the good parts
when he was just
the kid who asked me to hang out with him on the playground
because my name's the same as some guy from a movie
and the guy who teased me about how jumpy i am
and who fought with me about comics or video games
and who i took to a sadie hawkins dance cause i was too nervous to ask chris
so i

you're good too dave
all the bad things that've happened to you
you don't
deserve them either
whatever you've done or
i never got to say anything like that to him
no matter how mad at him i am
it's true
but i'm saying it to you
because it's true here too

so i'm very sorry
and i mean that with everything in me
