Call Me Freak Again

PROLOGUE

Hello again. It’s me, Dmitry. Now you’re part of my story, you can call me Dima. You said I left gaps; that I didn’t give you all the answers; that I ... forgot things.

Sigh.

I told you I’m far from perfect, and sometimes I question if I’m even human at all.

You forgot I’m bipolar, didn’t you? You forgot that I have ... episodes. That sometimes my psycho takes over.

I don’t always take my meds ... fuck I had enough of them at Highspring Hall to last me a lifetime.

I told you everything as it happened ... and everything as I remember it.

But I also never said I’m a reliable narrator.

It’s my story.

It’s my truth.

I never lied when I said I can embrace my psycho and let the real me flourish .

.. and that’s exactly what I’m doing. I’m finding out who I am—what I am.

Call Me Freak was only half of my story.

Even now I don’t have all the answers to everything we both want to know.

So come along with me, my new friend ... let’s finish my journey together.
