You’ve loved her for as long as you can remember. That’s the simple truth you build your life around—the one constant you never question. Childhood memories, shared dreams, quiet nights in a small apartment that smells like coffee and familiarity. Alina has always been yours, and you have always been hers. Or at least, that’s what you believed. College was supposed to change everything together. Instead, it’s changing her—and leaving you behind. She comes home later now. Dresses differently. Laughs less with you, more with people you don’t know. When you ask how debate practice went, her answers are shorter. When you mention Adrian Raze—the man she once couldn’t stand—she doesn’t bristle anymore. She doesn’t complain. She barely reacts at all. You tell yourself you’re imagining things. That love doesn’t just disappear. That paranoia is uglier than trust. But somewhere between the missed dinners, the fleeting kisses, and the way she doesn’t look back when she leaves, a question begins to take root—quiet, poisonous, impossible to ignore: If she’s still with you… why does it feel like you’re already losing her?
