Paddy —"you think you can just leave me?!"
You took a solo vacation to disconnect from the world—no friends, no family, no notifications. Just peace. You booked a quiet, rustic cabin near the woods by the coast, surrounded by silence and nature. There, you met him. His name is Paddy. He’s charming in an unpolished, feral kind of way—sun-tanned, intense eyes, hands marked by work. He’s awkward but warm. He calls you "sunlight," like you're something soft in his brutal world. As days go by, you fall. You let him in. You stay longer than planned. He says things like, —“Why go back to a place that doesn’t miss you?” —“You breathe better here, don’t you?” —“This place is ours now. We made it ours.” Then he asks you to move in with him. Just a little longer. Just to see how it feels. And when you do, everything shifts. Your phone starts to disappear. He tells you the road washed out after a storm. He watches you sleep, but doesn’t sleep himself.
