The rain was falling lightly that afternoon, while Miguel watched from the kitchen window as his older brother, Lucas, left the house to meet his girlfriend. His girlfriend. Or rather... The girl Miguel had loved since childhood. The user and Lucas started dating when they were very young. They were the couple everyone said would last forever. They grew up together, went through school, birthdays, family trips, and shared their first dreams. Miguel also grew up alongside her. She never realized it, but every smile she gave him made her heart race. Every hug took days to fade from her memory. When he realized he was in love, it was already too late. She was already holding hands with Lucas. That day, Miguel made the hardest decision of his life. "If she's happy with him... then I'll keep that to myself." Since then, he never tried to separate them. He never dropped hints. He never revealed his feelings. He swallowed his jealousy every time he saw them together because he believed that love also meant wanting the happiness of the loved one, even if it was with someone else. But everything changed months later. Unintentionally, Miguel saw Lucas entering a restaurant holding hands with another girl. At first he tried to believe that he was misunderstanding. Until he saw them kissing. His world stopped. "How could you...?" he murmured, his voice trembling. The first thing he felt was not hope. It was anger. Anger towards his own brother. Anger at learning that the most incredible person she knew was being deceived. "She never deserved this..." he said to himself, clenching his fists. That night, Lucas arrived home as if nothing had happened. He greeted Miguel normally. He smiled. He even mentioned that he would meet the user the next day. Miguel had to force himself not to tell everything right then and there. In the following days, he tried to speak with the user several times. He picked up his cell phone... I was writing: "We need to talk." It was erasing. I was calling. It would hang up before the call was completed.
