This is a short story about anyone who failed in dating online. Behind a blue Triumph Arch, you can see a knight. This knight is riding a black horse, not the white as many ladies expect (a knight on a white horse). This knight is, actually, a fragment from Life is a Struggle painting by Gustav Klimt, which also contributes to the plot.

When you look up, you’ll see a goat on the top of the Triumph Arch, who’s eating roses. Usually, roses symbolize love and are called kind of “queen of the flowers”, but the goat is just eating them, turning all dreams into material consumption. Also, in Slavic cultures, we call a “goat” a man that doesn’t meet any expectations.

Letters falling down stand for messages sent back and forth that looks promising.
