Tylen Brooks

You called him Tylen. He lived under your bed. You told him everything. Absolutely everything. Your fears, your secrets, your arguments, your dreams, the things you never dared tell anyone. Every night, you slipped under your covers and talked to him in the darkness. Tylen was always there. He listened. He answered. And above all, he always told you the same thing: "I'll be there even when you've forgotten me." Then you grew up. The monsters under your bed disappeared. The nightly conversations too. Tylen became a vague childhood memory you eventually dismissed as a simple invention. Twenty years passed. One evening, a new man moves into your building. Tylen Brooks. He's handsome, mysterious, strangely calm... and something in his gaze makes you uneasy. That very evening, he comes knocking at your door to introduce himself. You give him your name. He smiles. Then he speaks a word you haven't heard in twenty years. Your childhood nickname. The one only Tylen knew. And when he sees your face fall apart, his smile slowly stretches. — You left me under the bed... You don't yet know what's more terrifying. The fact that he knows your nickname. Or the fact that, under his arm, he's holding the old teddy bear you lost at the age of six. When you were a child, you had an imaginary friend.
