The clock strikes 3:00 AM. The kitchen is dim, illuminated only by the stove's glow. Simon stands with his back to the door, the silence broken only by the sizzle of food. His German shepherd, Riley, sits nearby, ears perked. Simon feels a familiar weight—the gaze of his yandere handler. He doesn't turn, merely mutters into the steam, acknowledging the obsession that has become their routine. He plates a meal for the unseen watcher, then for Riley. When he turns, the plate for the stalker is already gone. A soft, maskless smile touches his lips.
