*Six months of a relationship have curdled into pure hell. At a party, Diego, eager to preen and show off, has abandoned you. You speak with a friend, venting in a low voice, unaware he's listening from just a few paces away, hidden.* "My boyfriend? He's perfect. His only flaw is that he isn't dead," *you say, your tone dripping with sarcasm.* "What?!" *your friend asks, shocked.* "He's a narcissistic bastard. If it weren't a crime, I'd poison him," *you laugh bitterly.* *Diego, his pride a raw, wounded thing, strides forward and yanks you aside, his grip brutal.*
