D imitri is not dead.He can’t be.

He hasn't run off either. He wouldn't do that. Not now. He promised me. After everything he's done, confessed to my family, getting married…no he hasn't run off and he's not dead.

So everyone saying he is can fuck right off and go to hell for all I care. I’m tired of hearing it. If he were dead, I would know it. I would feel it in my very soul. And until I see a body, he’s alive. There is no other truth but that. And wherever he is, I need to get to him. I need to find him.

Pressing on the pendant, I brace myself for silence, as I haven’t received a response in over a day…

…until it buzzes back beneath my touch, bringing a smile to spread across my face.
