Lyla nodded and then gave a small laugh. "Eventually, you at least hope they do. You do have some people in this world that just keep making stupid mistake after stupid mistake and they never quite learn from it. Tim is a prime example. He had to end up in jail for something he didn't even do before he started to realise that maybe doing stupid things wasn't the best way to run his life, that being a better person got better results. It's not an easy lesson to learn. It takes a hell of a lot of balls to want it because change is scary. But what is even more scary is changing yourself. As hard as that whole thing sounds like it was for you to go through, it sounds like you both ultimately made the mature choice. A baby is no thing to be messing around with. The choices stop being about you and all about what's best for them."
"Are you talking about Kurt? He's a sweetheart. I've only met him a couple of times, but his story is pretty infamous. He's been here a couple of years without his husband, right? So, his husband is your best friend. How long have you been here without him?" She listened in concerned, frowning as she shook her head in disbelief. "Broken heart that couldn't heal. You hear all this, and he still hasn't arrived, so now you're wondering what kind of fucked up world would take a guy's husband and leave him all alone, and then bring you here to a place that won't even bring him here too if he was in that much pain? That people can come here because of something as insignificant as losing their favourite so, so why can't your best friend? Puck, this island is the strangest goddamn thing I have heard heard of. I don't think I will ever understand it. We live here and come to accept that we're here until we're not anymore, but it has it's own plan. Maybe he won't come here until everyone here waiting for him is settled enough to be able to help him? You can't give up, okay? You need to keep a positive mindset so that if he ever does come, you can help him readjust. Especially if he had a tough life back home. The biggest part of this place is having people here who can help you learn to live here."
