“Three things Naomi Williams knew about her mother- that she was smart, athletic, and had horrible taste in men. Worse, Naomi knew that she herself was exactly the same in all three respects. The difference was that Naomi had seen her mother's mistakes, she'd watched them play out, one after another as easily predictable as slow-motion car wrecks. She was keenly aware of where each and every twist of the wheel and stomp of the brake had caused the careening momentum of her mother's life to go into an unrecoverable spin. She knew from careful observation how to drive a life in order to crash it, and she was not about to make the same desperate moves with her own. She kept up her grades, she had decent extracurriculars, and she knew what she wanted. She had planned her post-high school escape route so many times she could drive it in her sleep.”

“Mike Snyder was the problem. He was two years older than Naomi and started hitting on her when she was about fifteen. Mike was something of a mythical figure around town. He had a reputation so thoroughly unearned that it defied reason, but there is almost no limit to what a person can achieve early in life when he has the total and unwavering support of a large and uncritical family. It's later that all turns back on you. But in his early years and in the Snyder view, Mike was an artist and interpretive dancer and brilliant musician. He was an immensely gifted child of God who must be given space and respect and freedom and money. Plus blow jobs. in Mike's opinion. Naomi held off for a while, but he was so earnest, so tortured and pleading and clearly screwed up beyond his family's ability to see, that she took pity on him. She knew it wasn't right, it wasn't how things were supposed to be, and looking back, she can't believe she was ever so passive. Why did she feel this weird obligation to him that she didn't feel to herself? But she did. They'd go through periods where things would heat up and cool down; there were times she thought she loved him, times she was pretty sure she hated hate, but most times she just felt vaguely bad for him. The kid was an imposter even if he couldn't come out and say it, and she wanted to make him calm down and leave her alone.”

None of these are mine, but I have cropped some of them since most of the gifs I found had dialogue. Don't worry, I didn't crop any water marks, they just didn't have them.
