Digital Love
As you can guess, I watch the cameras of this apartment block. Things miss my eyes, but nothing will be missed in the camera
So, I’ve been emotionally invested in this couple: the Robinson couple live in Flat A and there love is so sweet like honey.
I passionately gaze at the camera, as I watch them
Robyn Robinson gaze at Robert Robinson. Her eyes shimmered with tears and her face was coated in cold ice. While, Robert’s eyes too were coated in a similar sadness.
I was confused at, yesterday they were laughing over tea and they were always beaming like the idiots they were. Now, they had some mature yet sad elegance around them. Where was their playful youth-like nature
‘This ring…chained me down.’ Robyn sadly said.
She held her engagement ring and her eyes were highlighted with an even intenser sadness.
Robert’s eyes acknowledged the truth, but his eyes still darkened with pain.
‘Then…what about me…?’ Robert softly said. He couldn’t hide it anymore, tears streamed down and his fingers covered his face.
‘Don’t look at me Robyn…’
Robyn’s eyes welled with pain. I wonder what she thought? She didn’t love him, but she liked him enough to feel sadness.
Robyn embraced him and her arms were shaking.
It was weird…the tall and proud Robert, was like a child—small and vulnerable. And the Robyn the people pleaser was finally doing something for herself.
It was tragic…watching this digital love end in unspoken truths
