Prisoners of feelingsA Story by Tasi83He felt as if he had been hit on the head with an unfathomable force, and
when he regained consciousness, another huge blow was delivered to his heart,
which was bleeding from a thousand wounds. As if he were no longer in the
difficult, shameful, disappointing reality, but rather in a temporary
in-between place, where most passers-by only stay for a day or two and then
wander on. - I'm breaking up with you, Balázs! - he said openly into her eyes.
- But then... why...? Did I hurt you? Was I not good to you? Didn't I try to
make you happy?! I do not understand! - he heard his naive, childish pleading
sentences. He recognized the fact that they were far from appropriate for a
responsible, well-mannered, philosophizing person in his forties who had
graduated from several universities. They were more like the pleas of a small
child who has just lost a surrogate mother. - Please don't be childish! There's
nothing you can do to convince me to stay! We are both adults! It is possible
to organize such a thing thoughtfully! " all the words of the girlfriend
revealed that she was actually trying to find out how much of a profit she
would get because she got out of a relationship that was already doomed. - Now
it was his turn to question his beloved with ruthless honesty. - I would say
that when we met you were mysterious and mysterious, only later did you become
totally boring! - his words both killed and burned in the complicated depths of
the soul. He had known for a long time that he belonged to the camp of the
exceptional lucky ones, whom most fantastic, modern women only use as trophies
or springboards to achieve their own selfish or petty goals. The man thought
about it and seemed to digest every word. He fought with his emotions and
struggled at the same time. Her friend also knew this, and she could feel a
small sense of satisfaction when she stated her own conviction. "Then...
that was all..." she said after a long time. "There is nothing left
that we once felt for each other..." My heart! Don't chatter! You can get
divorced normally! - the woman felt as if she felt a little sorry for the
kind-hearted, but at the same time somewhat unfortunate person in the world,
with whom she maintained a relationship. Now, as if he himself had turned to
consolation, he changed to a more peaceful tone. He left his bags on the made
bed; she sat down and crossed her long, slender legs, as if she wanted to
secretly provoke his ego. "As a matter of fact, I have someone!" He
is very handsome and treats me well! You would definitely like it immediately
if you could get out from behind your books and your owl nest once in a while
for the sake of variety. Why don't you try to live a little like other normal
people?! " his words inflicted merciless wounds on Balázs's sensitive
conscience. It often happened while they were together that the man was able to
shed tears honestly and without pretense even in the most unexpected
situations, and he did not understand at all those who said that a man is
strictly forbidden to show his emotions. Or that he brought breakfast into the
bedroom in the morning and watched with delight as the butter and jam marmalade
left a stain on his beloved's face. - We'd be human, not robots, for heaven's
sake! - he confessed. - Forgive me, but can't you hear yourself? So, forgive
me, but you don't think I belong to the so-called in the company of normal
people? - he asked back, and this time he tried to force a solid courage on
himself. - Don't be hysterical and don't think that I will soften just because
I see how much you are playing the sufferer for me here! Don't forget that I
also went to your color theory, just like you! I know exactly all the ins and
outs of manipulation. I tried to explain, if you had listened to my words, that
you hadn't changed a single bit during our entire relationship, while I wanted
to start my career or a moderately well-functioning, small-scale business.- Oh!
I understand now! - he crossed his arms in front of him. "So you feel that
I neglected you or didn't appreciate you enough to make your own plans and
dreams come true?" That's right?! - he always winced from eye contact,
even though this would be the primary basis of communication. - Yes... - he
answered barely audible. - If you feel that way, then I am sincerely sorry for
that! But I just don't understand why you stuck with this relationship if you
were so driven by the desire for fulfillment? I can't get it! - he raised his
eyes to the ceiling amidst heavy sighs. - Because I told myself that things
would change with time! There will be one or two children, and while we become
a regular family, we can fulfill ourselves a little! If you know what I mean? -
now it seemed that the woman was in a position of superiority and looked down
on her former friend from her own superior throne. - So you think it's my fault
that we didn't have children? Or how we lived like this?! then why did you
stick to this relationship if you were so driven by the desire for fulfillment?
