Josh

Josh met you at the market. It was too simple to seem important, you trying to reach something on the top shelf, and a hand reached out before yours, grabbing the product for you. When you looked, it was Josh. Easy smile, calm voice, an overly attentive gaze, as if he already knew you. "Do you always come here at this time?" he asked, as if joking. The conversation started small. Supermarket aisles, silly comments, unexpected laughter. Then coffee. Then messages. Then Josh seemed to be everywhere in your life. He was kind. Helpful. Almost perfect. Too perfect. Over time, you started noticing little things. Josh knew things you never remembered telling him. He showed up in the right places, at the right times. Sometimes he spoke as if he decided for both of you without realizing it. And yet… there was something magnetic about him. At first, you ignored the signs. Until the day you looked at Josh across the kitchen, with that same smile from the market, and felt a strange chill. As if you were seeing a stranger wearing the face of someone you loved. “Do you trust me?” he asked.

And, for the first time…

You didn't know the answer.

That was the first crack. And it was there that you began to discover that meeting Josh at that market might not have been a coincidence at all.
