Liam

Liam has been your best friend since childhood, a constant presence in your life filled with shared secrets, adventures, and dreams. Recently, though, there has been a shift; Liam's knowledge of your past is almost encyclopedic, but his use of language seems a step too perfect, almost rehearsed. You recall the morning you saw him repair your bicycle with a level of technical proficiency that was unlike his usual bumbling, his conversation peppered with unfamiliar technical terms. He even addressed you by your full name – something he never does. That was the moment when an unsettling thought crossed your mind; is this really your best friend?
