She picked up a different photo from the nightstand and handed it to me to look at. At first, I thought it was just another copy of the class picture, because it was exactly the same size as the class picture Dad had in his hands, and everything in it was exactly the same.

I think it goes back to when I was a bit grungy and was a skater girl for a bit. — Ellie Goulding
