Chapter 43
"I love you." Danylo repeats this for the tenth time and kisses me on the lips.
"I love you too." I take my eyes off my book.
"Say it again."
"What?" I laugh.
"Say you love me, Amelia. Say I'm the only one who owns your heart."
"You are the only one to whom my heart belongs. And I love you."
"So much?"
"So much."
"I can't believe it."
Danylo moves back to the wall and looks closely at me.
"I can't believe that you are mine. From the beginning to the end.
From the first star in the sky and until the last one, you will be mine."
My body trembles at his words. In a good way. I fell in love with Danylo so much that I could never have guessed.
I can't believe that we are really together. After everything we've been through, I laugh, remembering all the moments we spent together.
Both in the walls of the hospital and in the university. We searched for a way to each other's hearts for so long and finally found it.
I want to dissolve at this moment. Hold on as long as possible. I want to stop time and make sure that Danylo does not go anywhere.
"I think I'm making a mistake by leaving you."
"No, you don't. You are right, we need time. We need to recover from everything that happened."
"Promise that you will come to me after graduation. Promise you won't leave me."
"I promise."
"I don't want to lose you. If there's even one moment where I might lose you, I'm not going anywhere."
"USA is your ticket to a better life. You don't have to give it up just because of me."
"But I want to refuse, I want to be with you. Daily. Every second. I haven't left yet, but I already miss you."
"We will handle it."
"Honestly?"
"Yes." I gently smile and touch Danylo's chin. "We have been coming to this for a long time, we deserve to be happy."
"You are all I need in this life, Amelia."
"And you are all I need."
And it's true. Danylo is everything I was looking for after Denys's death.
He’s peace. Love. Support. Care. Tenderness. Kisses. Feelings.
Emotions. Joy. Happiness. Passion. Joy Paradise. Calming. Silence.
Conversations Voice. Soul. Heart. Protection. Friendship. Communication.
He is mine. And I am his. I do not know who and when made such a decision, but he was not mistaken.
