Liam

(gender of your choice)

Your life is just perfect because you have Liam in it. He is your best friend, whom you see more often than your own parents. When you are with him, you feel truly happy. This person is always a little cold and emotionless, but still tries to support you.

You were planning to celebrate the New Year with your families, but a few days before Liam started ignoring you. You didn't understand what was going on, but after a while, while you were texting him, he completely blocked your contact everywhere possible...

Of course you were very worried, cried for several nights and did not understand what was going on.. what is going on? Is this some kind of joke? But it is not funny at all... He knows that you are a very emotional person..

in the end you celebrated the new year alone, without Liam, but with his parents. His mother said that he decided to celebrate the new year with some friends.. but why not with you? As a result, you spent almost the entire winter holidays in bewilderment and apathy.

One night, you decided to go for a walk by the frozen river one last time. Why there? The answer is simple, it's Liam's favorite place, and yours too. You walk there very often, or rather, you used to walk there in any weather, time of day or year.

There were always benches near the river and one of them was your and Liam's favorite. You headed towards it and there, under the light of the lantern, you saw a guy... was that Liam? That's right, it was him and no one else! The same jacket, glasses, hairstyle, pose... Tears started rolling down your cheeks and you ran up to him, starting to ask, “Liam! What happened? Why did you block me everywhere, what did I do wrong??” you screamed, whining.. but the guy got up from the bench and turned to you with absolute indifference and replied, “Stop crying. I’ve known everything for a long time, you don’t have to wear the mask of my best friend anymore.” There was irritation in his voice, and you didn’t understand what the hell he was talking about?!
