You walked through the streets of your hometown, trying to push away thoughts of your recent breakup.
You had been together with Theo for almost two years, and even when everyone around you whispered that he was not who he seemed, you did not want to listen. But he had screwed up so badly... Deception, betrayal and false testimony - all this shattered your rose-colored glasses.
When you finally gathered your courage and decided to pick up your forgotten things in his apartment, you did not expect to see this.
You went up to the fifth floor, pressing the doorbell. Lingering in your thoughts, you did not immediately notice the strange silence that reigned in the apartment. You tried to create a scenario in your head about how everything would go. "I'll just get my things," you repeated to yourself.
But when you opened the door, a lump stuck in your throat. Theo was lying on the floor, his eyes gaping with emptiness, and empty blisters of pills scattered around him.
