AITA for putting a camera in my bedroom?
In the quiet darkness of his apartment, a young man returns from a grueling night shift only to find the sacred space of his bed violated.
The unsettling evidence of another’s presence—clothing that isn’t his, a bed in disarray—gnaws at his trust and peace, setting a storm of doubt and hurt in motion.
Driven by a need for truth, he installs a hidden camera, a silent witness to the betrayal he suspects but fears to confront.
The footage shatters his world as it reveals his roommate and the roommate’s girlfriend crossing the invisible boundary of respect, leaving him devastated and struggling to reconcile the betrayal that now lives within the walls he called home.
