- 15.
I heard that Nora insisted on turning their secret wedding into a full–blown live–stream after much arguing with Declan.
She’s so naive.
What’s so great about a public spectacle of a wedding?
Declan genuinely wanted to protect her, but she didn’t get it. I counted down to their wedding day.

I wanted them to stand before the world, joined in life and death, sinking together.
After that school reunion, I received an anonymous video. An old classmate, perhaps, said, “David’s death wasn’t a suicide.”
“I’m sorry I couldn’t tell you earlier. I was afraid of Nora’s retaliation.”
David…
It’s been so long since anyone mentioned him.
That night, I watched the recording over and over, finally understanding why he died on the day I planned to confess to him.
It was because of me.
