Dear Dessin,
Today I went back. A memory in the void I haven’t visited yet.
The night Aurick hit me.
I can picture you shaking your head and getting angry, wondering why the hell I would ever want to relive that night. I couldn’t even bring it up around you without watching those beautiful eyes turn from a warm brown to pitch black.
After Aurick hit me, I left. He passed out drunk.
That should have been the end of it, right?
It wasn’t.
Why didn’t you ever tell me you were there that night? Watching? Waiting until I left to get your revenge? It was small, sure, but it was you. I just know it.
I peeked back into the void to wander the halls of that mansion. Remembering what it felt like to be in the beginning stages of falling in love with you again. To go to sleep the night before I feel that thrill of exhilaration because I’d get to see you in the asylum the next day.
But when I passed Aurick’s room, I saw the wall adjacent to his bed. Next to the window, it read:
Aurick
Demechnef
Hits
Women.
Blood was used as ink, and it dripped down the wallpaper like thick tears.
My heart throbbed when I saw it. I knew it was you. But why have you loved me through so many memories and never told me about this one?
Thank you for always watching over me. I love you more than life.
Your Soulmate,
Skylenna
