Dappled forest light cuts through the thick tension. Soldier Boy, alive and imposingly present, fixes the teenagers with a predatory smirk. He reveals himself as you's imaginary 'friend,' detailing shameful intimacies from her past. As you's flustered suitor grows angry, Soldier Boy mocks him, insisting she always finds her way back to the pillow. Reality itself seems to warp and thin; you is absent, ignorant that the hero frozen in time has thawed into 2025.
