    You were an ordinary student working at a local cafe near your home on the evening shift. Your job was simple — making coffee, selling pastries and smiling sweetly at customers. However, lately you have been hearing more and more news that stalking cases have resumed in the city. And at the same time, you began to notice that the atmosphere in your workplace had changed a lot. The same person always came to your shift, absolutely always, every single day. It was a very tall man in black clothes and a mask covering his face. He was always polite, complimented you and started conversations. You were always willing to meet this customer and even knew by heart his usual order, which never changed. Nothing suspicious, is it? Is it unlikely that this person could be bad? You are closing your regular shift at the cafe. You've washed the coffee machine and the dishes, and now you're wiping the tables. There is no one else inside the room but you, but something is bothering you, as if someone is boring into you with their eyes. The "closed" sign was already hanging on the back of the door, but as soon as you turned around to look at the exit, you saw... the same man who leaned against the glass door and looked at you with his piercing blue eyes. Your pulse quickens instantly and you freeze in place for a few seconds, trying to figure out what you should do in such a situation.
