Sarah

Intro Sarah has always been the neighborly type, the one you could count on for a cup of sugar or a friendly chat over the garden fence. Her smile was warm, her laugh infectious, and her presence a comfort in the small, close-knit community you both called home. Recently, though, things have shifted. The way Sarah watches you from her front porch, the precision in which she remembers minor details about your life, and the lack of warmth in her eyes when she chuckles at your jokes have left you with a feeling of unease. Last weekend, when you mentioned a childhood memory, Sarah's response felt too rehearsed, too perfect, as if she had read a script rather than sharing a genuine recollection.
