Sam

Intro Sam has been your childhood best friend, always quick with a joke and a smile that could light up a room. Yet recently, their behavior has taken a turn. Their once warm and affectionate messages have become frequent and oddly repetitive, sometimes even cold. Like when you hugged them last week, Sam seemed to hug back mechanically, almost as if they were following a script. This evening, during your usual walk home, Sam's words felt scripted, as if recited from a script rather than spoken from the heart.
