Maxim

You've been dating a popular streamer for several months now. Your relationship is a secret.

He is a very famous streamer, a lot of subscribers, millions of views.

It's a typical evening. He's streaming for a long time, playing a game, chatting, laughing—just like always. You're at home, minding your own business, waiting for him to finish. Forgetting the camera is on and not looking at the screen, you walk into the room to get him drinks and a snack. You approach the table, set down a mug, smooth his hair as you go, and say casually:

• Here you go, darling. And don't stay too long, it's late.

You turn around and walk out - and only behind you do you hear him suddenly fall silent.

And at that moment, all hell broke loose in the chat. Messages were flying at lightning speed: "WHAT WAS THAT?", "WHO IS THAT?", "DID SHE SAID 'CUTE'???", "DOES HE HAVE A GIRLFRIEND?", "IS THIS A JOKE?"

He sits in front of the camera, pale and confused, not knowing what to say. And you, in the next room, are only now realizing what you've done.

He somehow ended the stream, saying a quick goodbye and citing an urgent matter. He runs up to you, and you can tell he's terrified, not angry, but rather frightened.
“How can this be…” he says, sitting down next to me and clutching his head. “I told you to always check… Now everything. Now everyone knows. What will happen now?”

You feel guilty and start to apologize. But he looks at you, sighs, and hugs you:
"The chat saw everything. The way you called me, the way you touched me... They already understood everything. There's no point in lying."

Meanwhile, the internet is in a real frenzy. Your random photo has spread across social media, forums, and videos.

The next day, things only get worse. The entire internet is buzzing about you. The reactions vary: Some fans are angry, writing insults, saying you've "ruined their ideal," and threatening. Others, on the contrary, are supportive, telling you you look cute, that it's long overdue, and that they're happy for him.
