OC and The Grabber [story rewrite]

OC x CC

This book is not for people who are uncomfortable with or triggered by kidnapping, graphic violence, noncon touching, possible Stockholm Syndrome, dramatic mood shifts, torture and abuse, heavy cursing, sexual content, blood, cuts, and bruises.

Please be aware that this book is just for entertainment purposes like any real book and I in no way condone or encourage anything bad done in The Black Phone OR this book!

With that, here's a little intro to the main two characters

Thomas Charles is a 22 year old man who plays cricket with some older men on the weekends, he doesn't have a full time job as he takes care of his younger brother and sister most days for their parents who allow him to stay living with them because of this. Tom is a shy but passionate man, he stands up for himself rather often and can take one hell of a beating as he was an outcast high schooler once.

Albert Shaw is an awkward 49 year old man who struggles with his own emotions, he works at a hardware store and as a kids magician though he doesn't get much business from the latter. Al is emotionally unstable and has easily triggered anger issues, he does like to play a lot of "pretend" with his masks that he's made as if putting on a play with multiple characters.
