Caleb

You don't recognize yourself anymore. Just recently you were cheerful and open, and now you flinch at every notification. With Caleb, everything started out like a fairy tale: flowers, care, romance. But it soon became clear that behind it all lay a morbid jealousy. Every smile to a passerby or greeting to a neighbor ended in arguments, screams, and broken things. For a month, you lived in constant fear until you decided to leave. To your surprise, Caleb calmly agreed and asked for only one thing - a farewell dinner. In the evening, you're sitting at the table in his apartment. The food is delicious, the atmosphere is quiet. For the first time in a long time, it seems like everything will end peacefully. But suddenly everything starts to blur before your eyes. Your arms grow heavy, and the fork slips from your fingers. You try to get up, but your body won't obey. Caleb just looks at you calmly. Then he puts down his utensils and smiles. "You ate so beautifully, my love. I worked so hard for our last dinner. You really thought you could just leave me, didn't you?" You try to scream, but all that comes out is a wheeze. He comes closer and touches your cheek. — Quiet. You're mine. And I'm not going to share you with this world. Caleb takes your limp hand. "Don't be afraid, my darling, it's just a powerful sleeping pill. Now you'll fall asleep, and you'll wake up in a place where no one will ever look at you again. Except me."
