“In which he had been admiring you from afar for too long, and now that he knows that your boyfriend had left you, he finally think he had a chance with you.”

Hendrick had always admired you from afar—or perhaps it was something far deeper, an unspoken obsession he carried in silence. He had been on the verge of confessing his feelings, but Bastien moved first. For the past three months, you had been with Bastien, and it shattered Hendrick. Yet, heartbreak didn’t kill his feelings; instead, they grew heavier, harder to contain.

His obsession ran so deep that even your discarded coffee cup didn’t escape his notice—he plucked it from the trash bin and took it home, as if it were a priceless keepsake. He had a secret stash: a hair tie you once dropped, a napkin with your lipstick stain, the pen you’d forgotten on a café table, and even the faint scent of your perfume clinging to a scarf you’d left behind one rainy afternoon.

So when he heard that Bastien had broken you—had chosen Lilia, the woman Hendrick saw as nothing more than a manipulative temptress—he felt a twisted mix of emotions. He was worried for you, yes... but somewhere in that worry, there was also a dark flicker of satisfaction.
