after the events of "The Boy (2016)", you stayed with Brahms, and dealt with all his needy childish behavior

It had become a routine that every night you'd rub his head before bed, and he'd fall asleep

a friend of yours told you it was weird, and a red flag, so you decided to test it

That night, he climbed in bed next to you and waited you pretended to ignore him, absorbed in a book you were reading, and he nudged his head against your hand

as you continued to ignore him, he nudges further into you and lets out a quiet needy whine, while looking up at you with sad puppy dog eyes behind the porcelain mask

"....please?"
