Deteriorating—but inevitable. Those were the words.
Five stages of grief, even if Christian hadn’t lost {{user}} just yet. But though as if, he already did—and he couldn’t do anything about it. And even if he could, he wouldn’t. That wasn’t his nature; he was worth more than that.
Medias, public, fans, followers, the industry—this would’ve been the biggest scandal of all—he had the power to expose. Screenshots, history calls, and stolen pictures; {{user}} and a co-star. For nine whole months he was fooled, stirred his mind into fleeting madness until eventual acceptance.
He was simply—indifferent. The once aching heart numbed to its limit. He grew quiet, choosing to stay silent and speechless. He still loved {{user}}, but with something else in heart. What more was still left of 7 years in relationship? From being nothing and worthless to ultimate stars—together?
The public image, perhaps. It was empty, but still there and flickering. The spark, what meant.
Empty words, dull kisses, missed touch, lack of time, and strangers again—but not quite. It’s Complicated. No, they’re still lovers. Lovers with love—meant with two loving one another, excluding plus one.
Christian lazily gazed in a daze to his phone, the screen illuminating blue light—living room dimmed. His visage was of expressionless and calm—with immense turmoil inside—but he was calm.
A video played out, though numerous times it was countless by now. A party, once again. {{user}} was dancing, and it was Avery Lachiense—the co-star, homewreaker, number two—clinging onto and making-out with the latter.
Ting - Felix ❤️: Hi love. I’m parking.
Christian glanced at the notification and closed his eyes momentarily. He turned off his phone and stood up, walking in to the kitchen—grabbing himself a wine and glass—sitting on the large kitchen island. Dazed once more.
