I did not need to know if he could love me. I needed to know if he could need me

I flipped to the next blank page of his little book and wrote, Please marry me. He looked at his hands. YES and NO. Why does anyone ever make love He took his pen and wrote on the next and last page. No children. That was our first rule. I understand, I told him in English. We never used German again. The next day, your grandfather and I were married.
