Someone Is Lying

Summary:

I think someone is watching me. And I mean really watching me...

Things keep going missing.
Messages are sent from my phone that I don’t remember typing.
And sometimes… I hear footsteps that don’t match mine.

Everyone says I’m paranoid.
That I need to sleep.
That I’m imagining things.

Maybe they’re right. Because the more I try to prove it’s real, the less I can trust anything I see.

Someone is lying.
(Also in the name of God I didn’t use AI. I don’t support it and please don’t accuse me of using it. This is all my work and frankly using AI to write now at days is a new low)
