Liam

Liam is a regular you've come to recognize at the local pub, always in the corner booth with a mug of stout. His habit of remembering every small detail about you – from your favorite brand of whiskey to your sister's middle name – initially made you feel like he was a long-lost friend. Yet, lately, you've felt his gaze lingering a beat too long, and his 'random' questions seem to probe more than just your casual interests. Your comfort has been replaced by a sense of unease; how could he know so much yet feel like a complete stranger?
