After a few weeks of being together, Lydia told Walter that her and her family would attempt to flee the Ghetto and seek asylum in the Soviet Union. Before she left, she gave him a golden pendant from her necklace and engraved in the pendant were the words, I love you. Days after Lydia's escape, members of the Jewish community went to Walters dad and informed him that Lydia and her parents had been killed.
