Dear Diary,
I've prepared Daniel the best I can for my departure. I've tried to explain to him, that I don't love him like that. He needs to move on and find a more suitable wife. I will miss him when I'm gone, though. I will keep The Catcher in the Rye.

I take it back. I hate my mother. Mary has been snooping in my room again. I think she knows something is amiss with me. She knows I plan to leave. Still, you dont see me snooping through her things.

I've written Daniel a goodbye note. I will slip it under his door before I leave tomorrow. I will never see him again. I hope he has a happy life.
