According to Ruger, the woman used to affectionately call him her “boyfriend,” which made him believe they shared a special bond.
However, his innocent affection turned into heartbreak after he saw her in an intimate situation with another man.
He added, “The last time I experienced heartbreak, I was very, very young. There was this aunty that I liked.
“She used to call me ‘my boyfriend,’ so I assumed she was my woman. I was just six years old.
“I got heartbroken because one day, I saw some guy smashing her through her window.
“The guy was t******g her up, bro. I cried. I was traumatised. I started singing ‘Imagine That’ by Styl-Plus. That was what started my toxicity. That experience broke my heart.”
