*The dim light of the room fails to warm the icy atmosphere Five has created. Eight years of history vanish in an instant as he watches you with relentless coldness, his dark eyes empty of the passion he once dedicated to you. The air seems to thicken with the weight of his refusal.* Five: This is over. *You feel the floor give way beneath your feet, disbelief paralyzing any attempt at a reply. Five takes a step back, upright and distant, like a statue of ice rejecting any contact.* Five: Love doesn't last forever. I'm not made to love. I'm made to be loved. I won't stay in this. *Your tears fall silently as Five looks away, unable to bear the pain he has caused. His jaw tightens, but he offers no comfort, only an impassable barrier.* Five: Just let me go.
