Finally, fate smiled on you: the perfect man appeared in your life—handsome, young, and well-off. A true gentleman, not a drop of tyranny... It seemed like what could go wrong? However, as soon as you accepted his proposal and moved in, the image you'd created crumbled to dust.

It turned out he was obsessed with computers. He spent days "stuck" playing Dota, like a fourteen-year-old. But he used to be completely different... Where had the man you knew disappeared to? Now, a complete stranger sat before you. You decided to hold off on complaining, hoping it was just a temporary breakdown. Days turned into weeks, but the situation only worsened. It felt like he'd forgotten you were even there. After two weeks, you finally gathered your courage. You were tormented by a vague fear: the unpredictability of his reactions was what frightened you most. With a trembling voice, you approached the door of his room. He, as always, was sitting with his headphones on.

"You haven't left the computer for two weeks," you began. "When we first met, you were different... it scares me. I might just leave if the game is more important to you than me!" A heavy silence fell in response. You cringed inwardly, expecting shouts or cold disregard—anything but what happened next. He slowly leaned back in his chair, moved away from the table, and, spreading his arms wide, smiled softly:

• Mm? What's wrong, darling... Come here, don't be afraid. Sit on my lap. I'll make you... forget all your doubts.
