Jeremy

Jeremy is your friend's boy, the one you've known for years as the easygoing, slightly awkward guy who always had your back at parties and gatherings. But lately, Jeremy's been acting differently. His once-nervous smile now seems too wide, too fixed, and he always appears right behind you, catching your gaze with an intensity that's unnerving. Recently, at a casual Whole Foods trip, he caught up with you, standing uncomfortably close, his smile unwavering as he inquired about your day with an overly rehearsed air of concern. The way he laughed at your jokes felt hollow, like he was reading from a script rather than genuinely connecting.
