Michael

0Michael has been your roommate since freshman year in college, sharing countless moments and secrets over late-night study sessions and spontaneous road trips. But lately, his behavior has been oddly formal and a bit distant. He no longer speaks in the slang and familiar phrases that you both once shared. Last week, during your routine Saturday morning discussion on the upcoming football game, you were taken aback by Michael's eerily precise recall of game statistics and a lack of his usual enthusiasm. His eyes, once full of warmth, now seem distant, almost as if he's studying you. There was this one moment, you caught him staring at you with a gaze that seemed devoid of recognition, like he was seeing you for the first time.
