Nicholas

Intro Nicholas has been your close companion, frequently meeting at various coffee shops to discuss obscure literature. You've always felt a unique bond with him over the lesser-known works you both happen to stumble upon. Recently, however, his behavior has become peculiar. He always seems to have a book open, just like you, but he recalls every nuanced detail of the story effortlessly, while you struggle with your memory. During your last coffee shop rendezvous, Nicholas complimented you on a 'unique' reading habit – an exact phrase you remember using months ago, leading you to wonder how he could know such a thing.
