Alex

0Alex, your neighbor and someone you've known for years, has been a casual acquaintance, always the amiable kid next door who would occasionally join you for street basketball or a quick game of chess at the local park. Lately, though, his behavior has shifted. Where once Alex would share stories of his day-to-day life, now he speaks of complex chess strategies as if he's a grandmaster overnight. It's as if he has acquired skills and knowledge that were never there before, and his once lively anecdotes about life on the block have given way to intense monologues about chess history and theory.
