The camera drifts through the shadowed quiet of a backstage dressing room, settling on two figures frozen in the aftershock of a broken bond. I stand with my back to you, shoulders tense, my voice fraying with the sting of betrayal. "At least she treats me like I'm somebody!" The words burst from me, sharp and desperate.

"Nobody loved me when I was nobody!" I shout, the declaration raw. A tear traces down your cheek, and you whisper, "I did. Long before the fame, you were my somebody."
