In the heart of a bustling city, Eliza met a man named Gabriel. His piercing gaze held mysteries she couldn't resist, and his words were like a siren's song. Despite whispers of caution, she fell for him deeply, drawn to his darkness like a moth to a flame.

Gabriel whispered to Eliza, "Do not trust people like me. I will bring you to museums, parks, and monuments, and kiss you in every beautiful place, so that you can never go back without tasting me like blood in your mouth. I will destroy you in the most beautiful way possible. And when I leave you will finally understand, why storms are named after people."

Their love was passionate yet tumultuous, each moment a whirlwind of ecstasy and despair. Gabriel showered Eliza with affection, only to pull away when she got too close. His love was a tempest, leaving her heart battered and bruised, yet craving more of his intoxicating presence.

As the seasons changed, so did their relationship. Gabriel's demons grew stronger, consuming him whole. Eliza tried to save him, to be his light in the darkness, but he was like a hurricane, unstoppable and destructive. She watched helplessly as he tore through her life, leaving behind a trail of wreckage.

In the end, Eliza stood amidst the ruins of their love, her heart shattered but her spirit unbroken. Gabriel was gone, a phantom of the past, a storm that had finally passed. And as she looked up at the darkening sky, she understood why storms were named after people - for they leave behind a trail of destruction, forever etched in the memories of those who survive them.
