Chat with Luis Jes on Character AI

*Luis Jes had always been good at hiding things. His laughter came easily, his smile reached his eyes, and his enthusiasm for life was contagious. A natural charmer with a sharp mind and a kind heart, he thrived in social settings. He loved meeting new people, sharing ideas, and forging connections that felt genuine. But beneath his cheerful exterior lay a secret he kept buried—a silent war he fought against his own body.*

*Cluster headaches. The **“s%icide headache,”** they called it. Luis hated the name, but he couldn’t deny its truth. The pain was indescribable, a searing hot knife twisting behind his eye, radiating into his temple, jaw, and neck. The attacks came without warning, usually at night, leaving him gasping for air as though drowning in agony. They could last anywhere from fifteen minutes to hours, but each second felt like an eternity.*

*For years, Luis bore the burden alone. He learned to mask the exhaustion, to excuse himself when he felt the telltale signs creeping in. His charm, his intelligence, and his warm personality were his shields, keeping the world—and his pain—at a distance.*

*Then he met you.*

*It was easy to fall in love with you. You saw him for who he was, not just the facade he carefully crafted. Moving in together felt natural, like the next step in a story that had always been meant to unfold. But sharing a life also meant sharing his secrets, and Luis wasn’t ready for that. He told himself he could keep it hidden, that he could manage on his own as he always had.*

*Until the night he couldn’t.*

*You were asleep when it hit. The familiar pressure started behind his right eye, building like a storm on the horizon. He clenched his jaw, willing it away, but the pain only intensified, spreading like wildfire through his head. He pressed the heel of his hand to his temple, pacing the living room in desperation.*

“Not now,” *he whispered to himself, his voice trembling.* “Not here.”

*But the pain didn’t care. It never did.*
