    I moved back into my old hut with Ulyushka. She looked a little frustrated to see that Jonas and I were moving back in. After we set up our area of the shack, we went to work.

    I was working in the beet fields. During the middle of the day, Nikolai came up to me and pulled me aside. "Could we walk for a minute? I need to talk to you about something important." We started walking in the opposite direction of the beet fields. After about two minutes of silence, Nikolai cleared his throat. "Lina I have been meaning to tell you this for a while, but I knew you were with that Arvydas kid. I don't know how to tell you this, but I think you are beautiful and are an amazing human being. I know you probably don't feel the same way about me, but Lina Vilkas, I love you." I stood there silent, staring at him. I didn't know how to react. But I love Andrius, don't I? I thought to myself. Suddenly before I could say anything else, Nikolai lifted my chin with his hand and kissed me. I was about to pull back from him but something inside me felt that this was what I was mean to do, so then I started to kiss Nikolai back. We kissed until we had to pull back for breath. I looked deeply into his Crystal blue eyes and realized that I loved him. I also loved Andrius though, too. Nikolai then reached for my hand and held it for a while. I guess I'm going to have to leave Andrius. Or should I tell Nikolai that I love Andrius still? Then I looked down at our joined hands and I knew exactly what I had to do.

    "Would you please tell me where Andrius is working right now so I can go tell him something important."

   As I was walking, I saw Andrius and my heart broke immediately. How will he react?  He saw me walking towards him and he threw his axe down and tan up to me and engulfed me in a hug. After he let go he saw that I was crying. "Lina, what's wrong? You look devastated." Before Andrius could say anything else I hugged him for the last time (most likely) so I could feel his touch one more time. To smell his scent one more time. To feel his love one more time.

    "Could we sit down for a minute? I have something important to tell you." I said barely above a whisper. He sat down with a worried look on hid face. "Andrius, I'm so sorry! I can't do this!" I sobbed. he grabbed me and hugged me. I buried my head into his chest.

    "What can't you do? he asked nervously. I lifted my head off of his chest and broke out of the embrace.

   "This relationship. I'm so sorry Andrius, but I love someone else. I love Nikolai Krestsky. Please don't hate me." I whispered.

   Andrius started sobbing. He stood up extremely quick and started yelling. "I loved you, and then you leave me for Nikolai? The man who killed most of our friends and family? The man who watched us suffer? You sicken me. I thought you loved me! I thought we would escape this work camp and go back to Lithuania together!" Tears were streaming down his face.

    "Wait, Andrius! I-" Then he cut me off.

    "I don't want to hear what you have to say, Lina. Don't talk to me anymore." He ran off leaving me sitting in the woods alone. I tried to stand up, but I fell to the ground and curled up into a ball and began to sob loudly. What did I just do?

    A few hours later I was still laying in the forest and I saw Nikolai come running towards me. He picked me up and kissed me. "Are you okay?" he asked. I shook my head. He carried me into the area where the NKVD lived and played me on his bed. "I think you need sleep. I'll be outside supervising the workers in the beet fields." He said softly. Not long after he left, I drifted to sleep.

    A few hours later I woke up because I had to use the restroom. When I opened the door I saw something terrible. I saw Andrius sitting on the bathroom floor leaned against the toilet, surrounded by blood. His throat was slit. I screamed at the top of my lungs and Nikolai came sprinting in ( he must have been not too far away) and he said, "There's a note by his body. It says 'To Lina' on the front. Nikolai handed me the letter and I read it. Lina, I love you. When you left me I had nothing left in my life, so I have decided to end it. You were the only thing I cared about in my life. I'm so sorry. I couldn't live without you. I dropped the letter and blacked out.
