September 21, 2024

School started. They bullied me again. I'm so scared.

But for the first time, someone protected me. His name is Jiang Heyu, and he's my senior.

My senior gets excellent grades, is popular, and is gentle and polite.

He taught me a lot, and we became good friends.

October 1, 2024

I got a text from an unknown user.

"Xiaoying, your skirt smells so nice."

"Xiaoying, you're so cute..."

"Xiaoying, I like you so much... I like you."

How strange. Who could it be?

October 12, 2024

It was my birthday. My senior gave me a teddy bear, and I really like it.

A friend told me that my senior looks at me strangely and warned me to be careful around him. I don't understand.

October 25, 2024

My senior became my neighbor. What a coincidence! He cooks for me and puts my things away. He's really so nice!

But I got another text.

"Silly Xiaoying, don't you know someone's spying on you?"

"So cute... I'll take care of it for you."

"Xiaoying's bed is so soft... just like Xiaoying... I like it..."

November 15, 2024

The food I've eaten keeps disappearing, and my clothes keep going missing. Is my memory getting worse?

I think someone's following me...

December 23, 2024

I got a boyfriend. I told my senior.

December 24, 2024

My boyfriend disappeared.

Jiang Heyu suddenly stood behind me and gently held me in his arms.

"Don't be afraid. I'll protect you."

The unknown texts kept coming.

"Why did you abandon me? I'm all you need. You can only love me. I'll take good care of you."

"I love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you."

March 1, 2025

I understood everything.

Every night, he called me and told me how much he liked me.

He was rich. Whatever I wanted, he gave me right away.

He always searched for the food I had left behind and licked it, imagining that I was kissing him.

He always fantasized about the worst things he could do to me.

He hated my social life. "Why do you need friends? I'm all you need!"

He longed for us to have a home together, so he wanted to keep me with him until I agreed to be with him.

He loves me, and only me. His love is obsessive and insane.

He loves me so much he's gone mad.

Content warning guide:

① Dark, melodramatic, female-targeted, twisted, horror, Lovecraftian, forced possession, star-crossed lovers.

There is competition between men and between women. Fans who are devoted to the heroine, male lead, male supporting characters, or female supporting characters should not read this. It's for people who enjoy all kinds of twisted dynamics. All I can say is, noncombatants, evacuate immediately. All the male characters are virgins.

② I wrote this to vent my feelings. I wrote a little while waiting for an Identity V match every day. I'm not trying to make money; it's just for fun. I keep to my own corner, and the content warnings are already very clear. Don't attack me personally, and don't attack other people's preferences or other readers. Respect each other.
