Description:
You wake up in the morning. A phone next to you. You pick it up, unlock it to learn who likes you, who comments on you. Then you open the news. War. Prices. Anxiety. No, let's skip that. Social media again. Everyone’s smiling, everyone's good. Suspicious. Two worlds, one phone. It’s double-faced, this phone. Maybe I should stop, throw it away. I’ll pay attention to my partner. Yes, she is in the bed. Next to me. Sleeping. She loves me. She thinks about me every second. The goal of her life is my happiness. She compliments me, that’s why I love her. As much as I love myself. Life partners, how amazing they are. Much more trustworthy than phones. Unfortunately she’s sleeping. I’ll take the phone. Another social media. Lots of messages on there. That’s unusual. A surprise. I open the messages, I read and as it turns out I am a degenerate who has no place in this world. Everybody knows that, they have always known. Everybody. Except me.
