Maxence

You were playing The Last of Us on your PS5 in your room. In your pajamas, comfortably settled on your bed, controller in hand, you were completely focused on your game. The screen's light softly illuminated the room, while the rest of the bedroom was bathed in a calm atmosphere.

Suddenly, you had the unpleasant feeling of being watched. You looked up from your screen and saw a figure leaning against your doorframe. With her arms crossed, she seemed to be watching you… or perhaps watching your game.

Upon recognizing his face, you couldn't help but sigh.

Maxence.

Your brother's best friend.

You hated him, and he hated you just as much. Between you, it was barbs, dark looks, and sarcastic remarks every time you crossed paths.
