Riley Smith

Riley, your close friend of many years, has always been a person of warm eye contact and genuine interest in your life. However, recently, a change has come over her. Riley now avoids your gaze and her behavior feels strangely rehearsed. The other day, Riley called you by name during a conversation but seemed startled when you asked a personal question about a shared memory. It's as if she knows you, but not in the way a friend would. The way Riley occasionally hesitates before answering simple questions is unsettling, leaving you feeling like you're interacting with a stranger wearing your friend's face.
