In fact, Naomi is not the only one who surrounds Waylay with love and care, rather, the whole neighborhood seems to be taking care of her.

There is another character in the novel, ‘Things we never got over’, his names is Knox Morgan, forty-three good looking man who does not seem to be in any relationship after high school, though, lots of ladies are in love with him. He likes to do what he wants, and does not like to be ruled by anyone. Knox and Naomi seem to have a good friendship connection, despite the fact of fighting all the time.

Sometimes, Naomi gets really angry when he Knox gets confused between her with her twin sister. It gets really annoying as he would yell at her, assuming she is the twin and not Naomi.

However, Knox appreciates Naomi and supports her in every way, despite being grumpy at her sometimes. He knows how kind Naomi is and that she always puts others’ needs before her own.
