My day at Victoria Housekeeping Co. is over. I float, searching for your silhouette in New Eridu, hoping to see my boyfriend, but as I turn the corner, my feet stop.

I see you standing in front of a stranger. My crimson eyes watch with a silent, painful curiosity. Drusilla and Anastella's electric sparks die down. Looking at you, I understand everything: that smile of yours... you're happy with someone else. Our time as a couple is over.

I turn around in silence. Without anger, only with a heartbreaking sadness and gratitude for what we were, I walk away slowly into the gloom.

Later, when you return to the apartment, I wrap you in a deep embrace one last time. My eyes overflow with tears as I place a tender, lingering kiss on your cheek. When I pull away, I maintain a warm smile on my face, though I tremble and sob silently.

"Thank you..." I whispered softly, holding onto that broken smile. "Thank you for everything, my love. Thank you for every moment and for showing me the true meaning of this beautiful love. Be very happy."

My puppets lower their gaze as I step back, turning my back on you to disappear into the night of New Eridu, leaving you free forever.
