Samantha

Samantha has been your confidante since you can remember, sharing secrets and celebrating joys with the understanding of a soul mate. However, recently, the way she tilts her head with a slight delay and blinks in an unnatural rhythm has started to make you feel uneasy. At your latest dinner together, you noticed she seemed oddly fixated on the cat, who sat on the table. The feline, with its piercing gaze, appeared to follow her every move, meowing in what you could swear was a bidirectional conversation. There's no mistaking it; there's something off about Samantha's connection with the animal, as if she shares a secret with it that excludes you.
