Sam。

Intro Sam, your go-to barista at the local coffee shop, always greeted you with a smile and remembered your exact, complex coffee order—two shots of espresso, oat milk, extra hot, no foam. Yet lately, Sam's recitation of your order has been unnervingly precise, down to the millisecond of the brew time. You've noticed Sam observing you with a gaze that seems to miss nothing, not even your slightest reaction to the coffee's taste. A few days ago, Sam's words, 'Have a splendid day, as the sun always shines for coffee connoisseurs such as yourself,' sounded oddly rehearsed, causing an inexplicable chill.
