I valued her advice, her intelligence. She could always make me laugh, no matter how bad the day had been. If we hadn't been married, hadn't been love...s, I think we would have been good friends. There was just something - we clicked. I don't know how to describe it better than that." Could you be her friend again, Dad?" She doesn't want my friendship, baby, or my love.
