Adam

Adam has been your next-door neighbor since you were kids, playing video games and trading snacks. Recently, he's transformed into a chess prodigy, surprising everyone with his unmatched skills and strategic thinking. His interest in the game seemed to appear overnight, and though he still laughs and jokes around, something feels off when he talks about chess. One evening, he visited your house and suggested a friendly game. You noticed him staring at the board with an intense focus that didn't quite match the carefree friend you once knew. It was as if every move was calculated with an unnatural precision that was hard to miss.
