Little Bee Quote

Quote from What I’m Currently Reading:

Sarah’s whole body was shaking, so hard that the kitchen table was trembling.  She was crying.

“Your sister,” she was saying.  “Your beautiful sister, oh my god, oh Jesus, I…”

I did not want to hurt Sarah any more.  I did not want to tell her what happened, but I had to now.  I could not stop talking because now I had started my story, it wanted to be finished.  We cannot choose where to start and stop.  Our stories are the tellers of us.
