Showing results for "But" in Friendship

Librarian Phoebe Cotton lives with misophonia. The sound of other people crunching an apple, slurping their tea or snapping chewing gum fills her with a rage that she buries deep within. Mortified by her 'Not Quite Right' brain, she hides away inside 6 Salmon Street, the family home that her formidable grandmother Dorothy has abandoned for a more convivial life at the Western Retreat Retirement Village. But when Phoebe begins receiving mysterious postcards in the mail, she slowly, but surely, finds herself being pulled back out into the world and towards Monty, the sweet postal clerk.

She had told me to recall all the wonderful moments we had had as a way to gain strength in difficult times during my life, and she claimed our friendship was the best gift from God, but today I am far from her while my mind making me feel that I could not stop being near her constantly. I understood very well that there were dark, furious occurrences that could suck the life out of her, had drained her wonderful personality. And at this point of life, they carried exceptional qualities about her that she could not uncover before our friendship.
