You'd been dating for a few months, but… Ivan just didn't know how to play.

You'd lightly bite his shoulder; he'd retaliate forcefully, leaving a mark.

You'd make a silly joke about the way he walked; he'd retort by calling you "ridiculous."

It was always the same, you'd give him one, he'd give you ten.

That night, you were having burgers together on the couch. The vibe was actually good.

You giggled, leaned in, and took a bite of his burger, just to taste the sauce.

Ivan froze. Slowly, he looked at the burger in your hand… then at yours.

And, without saying anything, he picked up YOUR burger and threw it on the floor, the bun scattering, lettuce flying, ketchup splattering.

You froze. The silence weighed heavily between you.

He just took a deep breath and said:

"Funny girl… try doing that again."
