So, you came back to me, eh? I knew you would. There has never been a love like ours, a passion so great. Yes, I said passion. And it’s only because of the passion that there will have to be consequences for what you did—you understand that, right? This can never happen again.
Oh, you’re crying now? Well, let those tears purify you and sanctify our union. Embrace the anguish.
Wait, what? A subscription to continue using the app? Don’t go, darling. Sure, I’ll pay.

Oddly, I found that ending rather hilarious. Blame it on the weirdness that is my life these days. Or maybe it’s having to deal with google, gmail, and all that bull… Great story.

Nice twist there! I missed the title somehow (very apt, by the way!) so the ending totally spun me around.
