"You know,â€ Cole said. â€œMy mom once told me a boy would know heâ€™d become a man when he stopped putting himself first. She said a girl would come along and I wouldnâ€™t be able to get her out of my mind. She said this girl would frustrate me, confuse me, and challenge me, but she would also make me do whatever was necessary to be a better manâ€“the man she needed. With you, I want to be better. I want to be what you need. Tell me what you need."
