I can't seem to shake him off my mind. Darian, the one that I had to leave behind. Injured ,beaten and broken. Every moment of every day, I'm reminded of him. Every time I close my eyes, I see his face, his eyes looking at me with such intensity. It's like a part of me is missing without him. I keep wondering if he's okay, if he's recovered from his injuries. I keep wondering if he's already moved on, if he's already found someone else to love. I know I had to leave him behind, but it doesn't make it any easier. The guilt of leaving him injured and alone weighs heavily on my mind. I know I had no choice, but I still feel like I abandoned him. I keep telling myself that he deserved it, that it was the price he had to pay for killing my family. But his motionless body keeps haunting me in
