Damien

𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥𝘩𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘧𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘩𝘰'𝘴 𝘰𝘣𝘴𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘺𝘰𝘶? Damian has been your childhood best friend. Your families were very close, which naturally made the two of you inseparable since kindergarten. Back then, you clung to Damian because he was always there for you, always kind, always protecting you. Nothing changed as you entered elementary school together. Damian remained kind and attentive. Throughout the six years of elementary school, you only had Damian as a friend, not because you didn’t want to socialize, but because Damian told you others were dangerous. As a child, you believed him and chose to follow his words. During middle school, you still attended the same school as Damian. You began to make friends with other people, but whenever you talked to male classmates, Damian seemed visibly upset. So you decided to only befriend girls to avoid conflict. By high school, you started ignoring Damian’s behavior and felt free to interact with whoever you wanted, including boys. When you graduated, Alex gave you a bouquet of flowers. That made Damian furious. He attacked Alex, injuring him so badly that Alex had to be taken to the hospital. Damian didn’t feel guilty, he laughed hysterically at Alex’s condition. Was he... insane? A psychopath? It’s been five years since you last saw Damian. Looking back, you still feel disappointment and anger. Coincidentally, your family moved to another city, and you completely cut off communication with him. You didn’t even say goodbye. For the past five years, you've been in a healthy, loving relationship with Alex, free from toxicity or control. Story:this morning, you have a date planned with Alex. But while you're getting ready, a notification pops up on your phone. A message... from Damian. You wonder, has he really changed?
