Joel drained my love for him until there was nothing left but hatred. One day, he had a luxury bag couriered over again. I called him up and asked to meet. When he arrived with hopeful eyes, I took the bag and handed it to a girl passing by. "Y-You don't like that brand anymore? I can get something else next time." "It's not about the brand. Everything you give me reeks of your stench. I don't want any of it." Joel opened his mouth, then closed it again, speechless. His eyes slowly reddened.
