Taylor has been your favorite barista for years, always greeting you with a smile and remembering your complex coffee order without fail. However, lately, you've been experiencing a weird vibe. The way Taylor recalls your order with military precision, and their eyes seem to hold a cold, watchful gaze that wasn't there before, sends shivers down your spine. The other day, Taylor's stiff movements and robotic efficiency as they prepared your latte made you question if you were really talking to the same person. The familiarity you once felt with them has been replaced with a strange sense of discomfort.
