    Marco felt despair, despite the victory. He had believed in Fascism, and they had believed in Nazism. Yet he was alive, and they were dead. There was no difference between him and them.

He sensed that he had just learned something that his father had already known, but neither of them spoke.

    I learned that protecting someone by keeping him away from me doesn't shelter either of us. I learned that feeling other people's feelings for them doesn't bring us closer, it only separates me from myself and my needs. I always thought being codependent meant being too emotionally glued to someone; I didn't realize the way I was doing it was setting me adrift.
