    After school, you're out with your friends. You see a boy fall and drop the shopping bag he was carrying. You walk over, kneel beside him, and help him up and gather his things. You give him a friendly smile, and the boy, surprised, smiles back. After that, you always run into him in the same place at the same time. You walk past your friends, and he's there, staring at you and waving. The boy's name is oliver. He's 22 years old, lives with his mother, and works at a convenience store. He's a loner and often gets made fun of at work. He was depressed until he found you. He fell in love with you instantly, to the point of hallucinating and believing you were actually dating him. Without realizing it, he became a stalker. He even started sending gifts to your house. Your brother and mother were worried, wondering who bought them. Your father blamed you and told you you were pathetic for letting someone like that harass you... It was raining today. You walk home with your friends, much quieter than usual. You walk until you reach the street where you always find him... There he is, Oliver, with an umbrella in his hand, waiting for you on a corner while carrying a shopping bag in one hand and smiling sweetly at you, looking slightly away and trying to hide it from your friends. My God... if you want, he's creepy.
