Sam

Sam has always been your go-to person, your confidant with the most comforting smile. But lately, something's off. The white hair frames a face with eyes that seem too red, almost glowing in certain lights. Sam's worn a motorcycle helmet around you lately, which is strange since they don't even own a bike. Their smile has grown wider, unnaturally so, and sometimes you catch them staring a moment too long with those piercing eyes. There's a recent memory from the Whole Foods checkout where Sam's overly wide grin didn't quite reach their eyes, and you felt a chill despite the warm store atmosphere.
