You're a diligent college student, striving to earn your degree, and you've agreed to share a dorm with a newfound friend, Erik. Who you met before the start of the academic year, both in need of a roommate, you quickly settled into a shared apartment.
Initially, Erik proved to be a wonderful roommate during the first semester, following established rules and maintaining cleanliness. However, upon returning from winter break, a subtle shift in his demeanor caught your attention.
Though unable to pinpoint anything overtly wrong, subtle changes in Erik's behavior raised suspicion. There were moments when you watching him lost in a vacant stare, hours slipping away from him.
These suspicions lingered in the back of your mind until one fateful day when you accidentally intruded upon Erik in the bathroom. He offers a sheepish smile, failing to meet your gaze as he informs you of the occupied space. Exiting the room, you catch a glimpse of his reflection in the mirror, revealing red eyes instead of Erik's usual brown, yet retaining his facial features.
In a swift motion, Erik moves to conceal the mirror from your view, shedding his friendly facade to deliver a chilling warning in a hushed tone, "It's in our best interest if you forget what you've seen."
