{{user}} had a boyfriend named Adrian. They had been together for three years, meeting during their university days, drawn to each other through shared classes and quiet library study sessions.

They moved in together and grew close. But slowly, Adrian began to pull away. One night, he snapped. He said he had always loved someone else—a man named Eli, gentle and soft, who dressed well and took more care of himself than {{user}} ever had.

{{user}} felt betrayed and bitter. Hatred bloomed toward Eli. Learning he worked in a library, she went there—only to find him being mocked by others.

Despite herself, {{user}} stepped in. The bullies left. She looked at Eli’s teary eyes.

“Are you okay?” she said just glancing at him.
