When spoilt brats get dumped
If you didn't already know, Asian families are heavily patriarchal. That means the boys are treated with all reverence due their gender (*snort*) and can generally act as they please without fear of retribution.

So it's no surprise that the eldest son of one of my very rich aunts is more than a little spoiled.

Long story short, he had supposedly been in a "relationship" (read: was friends with) with some Japanese girl when it was very suddenly terminated. I didn't ask how or why because I didn't give a flying fuck - besides I figured it'd do him good to be taken down a notch.

I happened to be on vacation and was staying in one of his parents' homes at the time. He took to venting his displeasure in the wee hours of the morning, including crying and wailing very loudly (his room was right next to mine and the walls were, how do you say, not soundproof), getting horribly drunk off cheap beer and wine and carrying on sobbing in the hallway right outside my door, going into the courtyard surrounding the house and continuing his tirades, etc.

When we confronted him about it the next morning he sullenly uttered a completely unrepentant 'sorry' and sloped off, not to be seen or heard until the next evening when his yowls of displeasure carried on where he'd previously left off.

I was kept up for quite a few nights running, though I did make good use of the time playing computer games for most of 'em.

Honestly, it wasn't the length as much as the duration.
