"What the hell are you talking about?" Lissa asked me angrily. "You can't think like that! You can't just… give up!"
"Give up? You think that's what I'm doing?"
She scoffed. "Of course that's what you're doing! This isn't you, Rose. You're a fighter, fight for him for fuck's sake!"
I didn't think I was giving up, I thought I was doing the right thing. He could be happy again, have a new life, without so many things burdening him down…
"Rose, tell me something, if you were in Dimitri's shoes—"
"It's not the same!"
"Let me finish! If you were in his shoes, would you let him walk away?"
I shook my head, it wasn't the same. I knew deep down, not matter what, I would always have feelings for him—
I gasped, the realization hitting me like a tons of bricks. I could never let him go, because I'd want him to fight for me, to make me fall in love with him again.
I couldn't walk away.
