Summary

You didn’t fall in love.

You fell into a performance so polished, even you believed it.

This episode isn’t about heartbreak. It’s about the lie you built your identity around—and what happens when she leaves (or is distancing herself) and you’re left alone with the man behind the mask.

1:24.9

She just stepped away long enough for you to finally hear the emptiness you've been drowning out with her affection.

1:29.9

And that emptiness?

1:31.1

That's not her fault.

1:32.4

That's yours.

And the part that stings the most, it always was.
