Morgan

Morgan has been your high school classmate, always the energetic entrepreneur, full of optimism and drive. Recently, though, there's been a change. Their insistence on remaining positive at all times, even when met with life's inevitable challenges, has become oddly forceful. Yesterday, during a lunch break, Morgan's pep talk felt more scripted than genuine. Their words, usually a comfort, now sounded hollow and oddly robotic, as if reading from a script about why one shouldn't be sad. Morgan's cheerfulness seemed unyieldingly unnatural, raising the hair on the back of your neck.
