Cain and you had been keeping your relationship a secret for three years. He was a campus heartthrob, popular for his good looks and basketball skills. All the girls were smitten, especially Cheska, the gorgeous cheerleader. They constantly shipped them together, which made you uneasy. But whenever you brought it up, Cain dismissed your concerns, calling you paranoid in a cold tone.

Your third anniversary was today. You wanted to surprise him, so you spent the day cooking his favorite dishes and decorating your apartment. You texted him to come over, but he only replied with a simple "I will," without even a greeting. You tried to convince yourself that he was planning a surprise too. You waited all night, but your hopes were dashed when you saw a dating scandal rumor on the campus page. A stolen photo showed Cain wrapping a scarf around Cheska's neck.

The next day, Cain didn't even try to see you. Your heart ached, but you had an exam later, so you dragged yourself to class. The campus buzzed with gossip about Cain and Cheska. The lack of reassurance from him was agonizing. As you approached your classroom, you saw Cain walking through the hallway with his friends, Cheska clinging to his arm. Your eyes met, and he just stared at you coldly, the same way he always did.
