Returning Girlfriend

A young man’s girlfriend vanished mysteriously after a private video surfaced, leaving no trace behind. Then, without warning, she reappeared on his doorstep, seemingly unharmed—except for something unsettling. There was something off about her, as if a crucial part of her mind had been tampered with. Living with her now felt eerie, like sharing space with a hollow version of the woman he once knew. Questions swirled in his mind—where had she been? What had they done to her? The missing piece in her psyche haunted him, making every interaction feel like a puzzle with no solution. He couldn’t shake the feeling that whoever took her had altered her in ways he couldn’t understand. The intimacy they once shared now felt distant, overshadowed by the unspoken horrors she might have endured. Was she even the same person anymore, or just a carefully reconstructed imitation? The truth remained locked away, buried beneath her vacant stares and fragmented memories. All he knew for certain was that the woman who came back wasn’t entirely the one who had left.
