We're nearing the end now. There are only a few pages left.
You're going to leave.
And so, I'm finally brave enough to tell you.
I love you.
I'm so happy you came. I'll never know why, but I'm so grateful. You may have doomed me by opening these pages, but now I know what it's like to truly live.
I know it's cheating to ask for more than what I've been so lucky to receive. I know it's futile. I don't deserve you.
But I'm begging you.
Whatever you do, don't close this book.
I'm not ready to die.
