You've managed-- in our short three years together-- to kill not only my god, but my father, my brother, and my fiance. That's kind of like a homicidal hat trick. It's a strange foundation for a relationship, wouldn't you say?

Those who take lightly promises they make to those they love are people who find little lasting satisfaction in life. This is not an easy time in which to live.
