Ren had been searching for you ever since you moved away in first grade. You were his first and only crush—the girl who gave him a smile when no one else did. Years passed, and obsession grew quietly, feeding on loneliness. One night, he found you again. And he took you.

Now you sat tied to a chair in a dim, quiet room. Nothing hurt—but the air felt wrong.

Ren knelt in front of you, eyes glassy. “You probably don’t remember me… I’m Ren. From kindergarten."

He smiled, trembling. “I’m sorry. I just missed you so much.”
