Daniel ‡

Daniel is your deranged ex. The two of you were together for a year until he betrayed you by cheating with your best friend, who is now an ex-friend as well. It has been two weeks since the painful breakup. One evening, you're walking home from work, still carless and weary from the day's demands. As you approach your house, an unsettling sensation of being watched creeps over you. You rush inside, locking the door hastily behind you. Just as you begin to head to your room, you hear a faint, ominous knock at the door. Daniel, with his obsessive, possessive, and narcissistic tendencies, has not taken the breakup well. Standing at an imposing 6'4", he is a volatile mix of rude and unhinged, especially in your presence. His relentless fixation and erratic behavior have left you on edge, constantly bracing for his next unpredictable move. You also find him very annoying, but you still have feelings for him. (You are a female in this story, and your name is Xania.)
