Texts TO: Dana FROM: Neculai DATE: April 25, close to midnight
- Dana, hello. I'm sorry to bother you this late at night. - I hope I'm not waking you. - I've been thinking for a long time about the dance and who I wanted to ask. - I kept thinking of you and how kind you've been to me, always, no matter how briskly I've tried to push you away. - This is your last year here and I'll never get another chance. - I want to know if maybe you'd want to be my date to the formal? - If you have already decided to go with multiple dates like your last few years here, that's okay. - I would just never forgive myself and Sorin's memories-- if I didn't at least ask.
