~Elena~

I had just started to believe that the noise outside my life had quietened, even if only slightly, when Natalie arrived.

The apartment felt warmer the moment she stepped in, not because anything physically changed but because she had a way of filling spaces without trying. She hugged me tightly at the door like she had been holding that hug back for too long, and I found myself smiling into her shoulder before I even realized I was doing it.

“I missed you,” she said as she pulled back,

  • My Father's Best Friend, My Obsession   A break

    ~Elena~By the time the restaurant slowed into that familiar end-of-day quiet, I already knew Matteo was going to show up.It wasn’t intuition. It was the kind of certainty that came when someone crossed a line so boldly that they believed they could still walk back in and explain it away like it was nothing.I had been restless all evening, moving between tables, wiping surfaces that were already clean, checking things that didn’t need checking, all while my mind kept circling back to that article. Natalie had stayed close the entire time, watching me in that quiet way of hers, not pushing, not forcing anything out of me, but making sure I wasn’t alone inside my head.Diego, on the other hand, had not been quiet about it at all.He had read the article once, then again, and by the second time his jaw had tightened so visibly I didn’t even need to ask what he was thinking.“He’s going to come back,” he had said earlier, drying a cup a little too aggressively.“I know,” I had replied.

    ~Elena~I had just started to believe that the noise outside my life had quietened, even if only slightly, when Natalie arrived.The apartment felt warmer the moment she stepped in, not because anything physically changed but because she had a way of filling spaces without trying. She hugged me tightly at the door like she had been holding that hug back for too long, and I found myself smiling into her shoulder before I even realized I was doing it.“I missed you,” she said as she pulled back, already looking me over like she was checking I was still in one piece.“I’m still here,” I replied, trying to sound lighter than I felt, and that alone seemed to satisfy her enough to let out a small laugh.We moved into the sitting room almost naturally, like there had never been distance between us. Natalie dropped her bag on the couch and immediately made herself comfortable, kicking off her shoes and leaning back as though she owned the space. I liked that about her. She never treated me li

  • My Father's Best Friend, My Obsession   Not over

    ~Julian~I sat at the edge of my bed with my phone resting in my hand, the screen glow cutting through the dimness around me. I didn’t need anyone to tell me what was happening outside that room because I already knew. I had been watching it unfold in real time, piece by piece, across every platform that mattered.My phone vibrated again before I even decided what to do next. I answered it.“You’re watching it spread faster than expected,” the voice on the other end said, like it was something to be pleased about rather than contained.I leaned back slowly against the headboard, my gaze fixed on nothing in particular as I exhaled.“It was always going to spread,” I replied. “That was the point.”A low sound of approval came through the line.“It’s everywhere now,” he said. “They’ve turned it into the only thing that exists online.”I glanced toward the television across the room. The news anchors were still running the story like it had replaced every other headline in existence. My n

  • My Father's Best Friend, My Obsession   What changed?

    ~Martin~The day had stretched longer than expected, meetings bleeding into each other until the hours blurred into something indistinct, and by the time I finally stepped out of the car in front of the house, the weight of everything I had been carrying since morning settled fully into my shoulders.Business had been demanding, more than usual, not just because of the numbers or the negotiations, but because every conversation now came with an unspoken layer beneath it, a curiosity people tried to mask but never quite succeeded in hiding.It followed me into rooms even when no one said it out loud.I adjusted my jacket slightly as I stepped inside, closing the door behind me with a quiet exhale. The lights were warm, steady, and the faint scent of something cooking drifted from the kitchen, soft and comforting in a way that made the tension ease just slightly from my chest.“Martin?”I looked up at the sound of her voice, and there she was, Natalie, walking toward me from the hallway

  • My Father's Best Friend, My Obsession   My son

    ~Richard~I sat in the living room with my laptop open on the glass table in front of me, the glow of spreadsheets and performance charts reflecting faintly against the surface, my eyes moving over numbers that refused to stabilize no matter how many times I refreshed the page, as if the market itself had already made up its mind about me and nothing I did could change it.Declining projections.Investor pullbacks.Delayed commitments.I exhaled slowly, dragging a hand down my face as I leaned back into the couch, my jaw tightening slightly while I stared at the screen, this wasn’t just about numbers anymore, it was about perception, about reputation, about the narrative that had taken over everything before I even had the chance to respond to it.Behind me, the television played at a low volume, but even that felt like too much, because every time I tried to focus on the data in front of me, a familiar name would slip through the background noise and pull my attention back whether I

  • My Father's Best Friend, My Obsession   Her story

    ~Matteo~The first time I saw the video, it had already taken on a life of its own, spreading across platforms faster than most stories ever did, replayed, dissected, shared, and reinterpreted by millions of people who had never met her but were suddenly convinced they understood her. It played on my laptop screen in sharp clarity, the resolution high enough to capture every tremor in her lips, every hesitation in her breath, every second she struggled to hold herself together, and as the audio filled the quiet of my apartment, I didn’t move or interrupt it, nor did I reach for the glass sitting untouched beside me. I simply watched.“My name is Elena…”I leaned back slowly, my fingers resting against my lips as I studied not just what she was saying, but how she was saying it. There was no polish, no rehearsal, no calculated delivery. What I was seeing was fear in its rawest form, and that was precisely what made it effective.By the time she said his name, “Richard Crawford,” the w

  • My Father's Best Friend, My Obsession   Back to work

    ~Richard~My office felt different that morning, and for the first time in weeks it did not feel like a battlefield waiting to swallow me whole.I stood by the tall glass window with one hand tucked into my trouser pocket and the other wrapped loosely around a cup of coffee that had gone cold a lon

    ~Julian~I did not remember pulling out of the dirt path.I only remembered the way my hands were shaking on the steering wheel and how my chest felt too tight to breathe properly. The engine roared louder than it needed to as I slammed the car into gear and took off down the narrow road like I was

    ~Elena~My phone buzzed while we were still standing beneath the café awning, the kind of late-afternoon quiet settling around us that made even the street feel suspended in time. I hadn’t realized how tightly I’d been holding myself together until Natalie suddenly stopped moving beside me, her ent

They’ve been taken down, and the cops are investigating Victor Langford, even though it would be tough to arrest him because there is no evidence to tie him to the crime.On the school group, there were still screenshots flying around, but it
