Hadie: That’s a pretty tough question.
There are some pretty awesome, memorable moments in Falling for Hadie. What are you going to say?
Komal: I guess I could talk about
memorable moments revolving around certain characters and scenes. Do you think
that would be fun?
Hadie: Super fun!
Komal: Well, in that case, why don’t we
start with you, Hadie.
#5 – When Hadie Swinton and Lincoln
Bracks meet for the first time
“Watch
where you’re going!” she snapped.
I was
taken aback by the hostility in her tone and stepped back, folding my arms
across my chest. “You’re the one who knocked into me. Do you need your eyes
checked or something?”
Her lips
gave an angry twitch. “What sane person walks backwards? Maybe you need your
legs checked.”
I couldn’t
help but smirk. “You wanna check them for me?”
Hadie: That was not cool! He was so rude
to me!
Komal: You were pretty rude to him!
Hadie: Yeah, I guess I did overreact a
little. So, what’s next?
#4 – When Eddie writes a song for
Hadie
Komal: Let me give you guys some back
story. Eddie likes Hadie. Hadie dates Bennett. Hadie and Bennett break up. Eddie
still likes Hadie. Hadie dates Lincoln.
Hadie: Do you have to talk about my love
life in such literal terms? It’s so weird!
Komal: I figured that if I was more
literal, it would get through to you a bit better. Anyway, so in this scene,
Eddie isn’t aware that Hadie and Lincoln are dating. Eddie’s in a band, so he
writes a song and has the lead singer perform it when Hadie comes to the gig. I
thought it was a really cute scene.
#3 – When Lincoln makes Hadie scream
profanity into the darkness
“…Shit happens, Hadie. Life happens. If we
sat around trying to figure out why things happen to us then we’d get
absolutely nowhere. Sometimes it’s just best to accept the things that happen
and move on. Give life the middle finger…”
Hadie: I will never forget those words.
Everything that Lincoln said to me that night was the absolute truth.
Komal: That scene was so powerful. It’s
amazing what Lincoln taught you.
#2 – Hadie’s parents
Hadie: *face palms* Oh, God. Like Dad
needs a boost to his ego.
Komal: Hey! Your parents are the bomb!
Hadie: Never say that word again. Please.
Komal: The bomb! The bomb!
When I
walked into the kitchen to grab my dog’s leash, I found my parents kissing.
“Ew!” I cried, shielding my eyes with a hand.
“Don’t you two have a room where you can do that?”
Dad turned
to me, his brown eyes twinkling. “We need to tie a collar with a bell around
her neck so we know when she’s coming. Don’t you think, Susanne?” He glanced at
Mom.
“Oh, that’s a great idea,” Mom said as she gave
me a teasing smile. “I can get her a name tag too. I’m always forgetting her
name. What was it again?”
Dad
scratched his head as he studied me. “It’s H-something. Hannah, wasn’t it?”
“No,
Henrietta?”
“Harrison?”
Dad slapped his palm against the side of his head as if it had suddenly dawned
on him. “I remember now. It’s Hadassah!”
Hadie: That was gross! I don’t want to see
my parents kissing!
Komal: Wait, there’s one more scene that I
loved that they were in.
Dad raised
an eyebrow. “Will there be boys where you’re going.”
“Probably,
Dad.”
“And
alcohol?”
“You know
I don’t drink.”
“Do you
want to borrow my pepper spray?” Mom quizzed as I sat down at the table and
pulled on a pair of ankle boots.
My brow
furrowed at her question. “Mom, why do you have pepper spray? You’re a secretary.
What’s the worst that could happen to you?”
“Sometimes
your dad gets handsy at work,” Mom said, wiggling her eyebrows up and down. “I
need something to keep him at bay.”
Dad winked
at her. “You know it, Sugar Pops.”
Hadie: Well, that settles it. I have the
world’s grossest parents. Please tell me the #1 most memorable moment is
something less vomit-inducing and doesn’t revolve around my parents.
Komal: There’s nothing to worry about—
Bennett: Say it. You’re #1 memorable moment
revolves around me.
Komal: *in disbelief* Why would it have
anything to do with you, creep?
Bennett: Because I’m just that awesome.
Komal: You’ve got to be joking. You’re a
total jerk and—
Hadie: Let me handle this. You go ahead
and share your most memorable moment. Bennett and I have some things to talk
about.
Komal: *mouth drops open* Some things? Like what? What are you
discussing that I don’t know about?
Hadie: That’s another story for another
day.
Komal: This doesn’t sound good. *composes
self* Sorry to keep y’all waiting! My #1 most memorable moment is pretty
special and is actually the entire epilogue. I can’t share all of it due to
spoilers, but here’s a few lines from it. Thank you for reading along! <3
#1 – Epilogue
Cherish every second
you have. Hold the ones you love close
to you. Sing, even when you don’t know
the words to the song. Smile when the sun shines on your face. Dance in the
rain.
