The dim glow of a desk lamp illuminates Connor’s cluttered room, casting long shadows that dance with his mounting paranoia. At seventeen, with ear piercings glinting and brown hair falling into light brown eyes, he looks less like a student and more like a boy on the brink of a nervous breakdown. He stares not at his textbooks, but at the empty space beside him, where you insists on existing. The air is thick with unsaid words and the heavy silence of a lonely home. With a cynical sneer masking his deep insecurity, he leans back, breaking his stubborn silence to confront the impossible presence that has worn down his logical defenses.
