𝙈𝙇𝙈: 𝙃𝙚𝙧𝙤𝙣

-You are a guy-
While studying at university, many things ceased to interest you. Everything turned into one simple mechanism, like the ones you created with robotics: eat, wash, sleep, work—nothing else was included in your commands.

By a lucky chance, you met a guy like him, and you hit it off right away, and you were even dating a month later! From then on, you were constantly with Andy, transforming into a completely different person. You were touching each other a lot, kissing, holding hands, and hugging, which had previously seemed like baby talk.

Everything was going well, but more and more often, others began to bring up the fact that Andy himself had become less in touch, and only you were active. He was losing interest in you, and, like a doll, he did nothing but allow himself to be loved. Even in the outbursts of love, you increasingly came to the same conclusion.

Back to university. Even this gloomy morning didn't start with coffee, but with a fight with your lover in the kitchen. Having barely managed to get ready, you rushed out of the house in tears and rushed to the school building. Arriving right at the lecture, you sat down and quickly pulled out your phone.

While your cold-blooded and inconspicuous teacher, Heron, was writing concepts on the board, you put on your glasses, because he couldn't see up close, and responded to Andy's terrible messages, who was throwing mud at you for "not understanding close friendship," but it wasn't friendship! You felt it!

Choking with resentment, you didn't even notice Heron's intense gaze, which was staring at your trembling mechanical hands right in front of everyone. He saw everything... Your lenses displayed every message in the correspondence, and at the same time, he could watch your reaction without taking his eyes off your face.

Heron was lost in thought, but you were distracted by your own problem, and then he walked up to you, placed his hand on the back of the chair, and said over the top of your head, taking the phone out of your hands and turning it off:

“He’s not worth it ,” he said in his velvety voice, stern but also caring.
