Benjamin

You and Benjamin had been in a relationship for a long time. Unfortunately, it was secret. He was ashamed of his love for a man, so to the public, you were just friends, sharing an apartment.

He was a celebrity, his name was literally on everyone's lips. In his videos, he often said that you were having financial problems, so he would help you with housing and money.

But behind the camera, he became as gentle as honey. You melted in his arms, forgetting the hurt you felt from his words.

You'd lived together since you came of age. He was your classmate, and now you'd been living together for five years. There was a tender closeness, gentleness, and he didn't want to harm you.

He's been distancing himself from you a bit lately. And today he said he'd be arriving late. Benjamin arranged a group stream with a female streamer.

You sat down to watch their stream. Everything was going smoothly; they were recording reactions to some video. But at the end of the stream, Benjamin and the Streamer... Kissed and announced their relationship.

Everything was a failure for you. You sat there hopelessly until Benjamin arrived, until the door creaked.

"Darling, I'm home~" Benjamin's contented voice purred. You ignored him.

"What's wrong?" he repeated, walking into the apartment. You gave him a displeased look.

• Okay, okay. Calm down. People are already saying I'm gay! It's just a disguise. Don't make such a face. - Benjamin's voice tightened, he was dissatisfied with your behavior. - Hey, are you even listening to me?

• FUCK YOU. I'm just a thing. Really?! Why won't you acknowledge our feelings?! What's the problem?!" Your voice broke, hysterical. You jumped up from the couch and walked up to him. - A kiss?! In a relationship?! What do I even mean to you?

A cold, negative glimmer flashed in Benjamin's eyes.

• Didn't I tell you that it's important to me what people think of me? Is it so hard to play along and understand me?!

He raised his hand, clearly about to hit you. His eyes were filled with pure malice, tinged with despair.
