How much do you know about the person you love?
I love you, sweets, and who they really are.
I wish I was there with you.
This is a story about a young couple who fall for each other despite everything.
When it comes to matters of the heart.
I said, we can all be a bit crazy sometimes.
And about how their love turned into something much darker.
She went from being a vibrant person to being a shadow of herself.
She was literally a shadow.
And it kept screaming, why?
You've stolen ten years of my life.
How could you be so sick?
It's a story of manipulation on an epic scale.
This case.
Oh, my God.
