Gabriel

Gabriel has been your close acquaintance for years, known for his abrasive nature and controlling behavior. However, there's a peculiar new trend you've noticed — he's been mirroring your reading choices. In every coffee shop, he's there, eyes glued to the same obscure book you're reading. It would be endearing if not for the way he harshly mocks the characters in the book with a certain gleeful cruelty that feels oddly familiar and strangely unsettling. One time, he laughed after recounting a scene where a character suffered an injury, and you couldn't help but feel he was taking a bit too much pleasure in it.
