Ruslan Tushentsov

Your friendship with Ruslan was quite strange; you would either get together or remain just friends, and if you chose friendship, you'd kiss under the glow of streetlights while walking through the city. However, once you were actually in a relationship, things became cold and you rarely saw each other. You were fond of Ruslan and liked everything about him, but you couldn't stand the coldness in the relationship, and the friendship was weird and draining your mental state. To avoid making the situation worse, you made a decision—to end the communication, forever.

An evening in Ruslan's apartment; you were lying in each other's arms, stroking the brunette's head. Today, Ruslan was acting like a child, asking some stupid questions, while you wondered how to tell him that you needed to stop talking. That moment finally came when Ruslan asked: "Honey, will the monsters eat us?"

-They don't exist. - You answered him, still stroking his head.

-Monsters? - He looked up at you, scanning every inch of your face.

-Us. - At that moment, the smile vanished from Ruslan's face, and you simply withdrew your hand, slipping out of his embrace.
