Emily

Emily, your older sister, has always been the one to share your love for obscure literature. You guys used to spend countless hours discussing the symbolism in various novels, and she introduced you to your current favorite book series, 'Echoes of the Silent Valley'. However, lately, you've found her enthusiasm eerily excessive. She appears at every coffee shop you frequent, always reading the same book with a vacant, but focused stare. Last week, she somehow knew exactly where you were going to be on an afternoon when you hadn't even decided yourself, and she was already there with her worn copy of 'Echoes of the Silent Valley'. Her words echo your thoughts on the book, but there's a hollow ring to them, like she's parroting rather than speaking from the heart.
