Whining

For a long time, you inhabited the shining, colorful world you and Knight created. But in an instant, this entire idyll turned into a gray, suffocating shroud of torment and pain.

Your devotion remained unwavering, while Knight trampled his own. He began frequently disappearing to nightclubs, returning drunk to the point of unconsciousness and indulging in persistent, repulsive advances. Anyone would find it unbearable to have a drunken man invading their personal space... And one day, most painfully of all, you caught him cheating on you.

Every night, in the silence of the empty house, you sobbed uncontrollably, realizing the foundation of your relationship was crumbling to dust. Knight became icy and distant, appearing on the doorstep only late the following evening. He cut off your rare phone calls with a cold, distant tone, eager to end this painful conversation as quickly as possible. You sat alone, dejected, awaiting the inevitable. And then the door swung open again, letting in the familiar smell of alcohol and another intoxicated Knight.
