Why she had to do that? (Short story)

Why she had to do that? (Short story)
I knew her from middle school and our affection grew steadily: we were considered a couple and the world problems didn’t count much to us.
After graduation, we got wed: the few invitees told me it was like a pantomime: a prom date.
One day, we threw a big party at our small apartment and we got drunk.
I was kissing a girl when my love barged into the kitchen and saw us. She laughed hysterically and left in a hurry.
By the time I rejoined her, she had jumped over the 3 floors. My first instinct was to jump too and rejoin her. My friends helped me to go downstairs.
I laid down near her inert body and mumbled: “If I knew you could be the cruellest person that history ever created. That’s Not a punishment you crazy cunt. I don’t love you anymore: You are a dead body…”
For 20 years, everytime I’m at a balcony, My right leg tends to hump the rail, but my body wouldn’t react to this prompt.
I have been transferring my attention to adolescents, Not dwelling too much on their upbringing, Not suffering enough for their experiences. “Love is a losing game”
