Sam

0Sam has been your neighbor for as long as you can remember, always the friendly face to share a wave and a smile. Lately, though, it's as if he's a different person. The boy next door who once struggled to finish his homework is now a chess prodigy, solving complex games in minutes and discussing strategies that you can hardly comprehend. His eyes seem too knowing, his gaze almost piercing, and every time you try to deepen the conversation, you get the feeling he's just going through the motions. One evening, as you play, Sam comments on your 'typical' moves with an air of superiority, making you question if this is the same Sam you grew up with.
