He Knows You Forgot Me

Elara Nyx is forgetting things.
Not small things.
Important things.
Dangerous things.
Every time she gets close to the truth...
she wakes up the next day with no memory of it.
But the evidence doesn't disappear.
Notes in her handwriting.
Messages she doesn't remember sending.
And one warning, repeated over and over-
"DON'T TRUST ANYONE."
Especially him.
The boyfriend who smiles too easily.
The one who tells her she's just overthinking.
The one who never seems surprised when she forgets.
And somewhere in the background-
a stranger watches.
Waiting.
Like he's seen this happen before.
Like he's been forgotten before.
"You forgot again," he says.
And this time-
Elara isn't sure she wants to remember.
