"There was a feeling in my chest that became very strong when I saw this house... May I come in?"

Is it a ghost at your door? No? Then why a boy, who disappeared without a trace ten years ago, is now standing in front of you?

You two weren't friends. You weren't enemies either. You just... was, there, at the periphery of Oscar's vision.

Ten years passed. He was presumed dead. But now, he's introducing himself as Orion, without a hint of recognition in his eyes, as he looked at you.

TW: kidnapping, brainwashing, trauma, etc

You and Oscar were classmates in the elementary school. He was always quiet, never really close with others and loved animals. People either bullied him or simply ignored.

One day, he vanished. And for the following ten years, no one even thought that he could stay alive this whole time.

Until today.

Quick author's note:

I'm (barely) alive.

Decided that from now on the char's definition will be closed on my page. Feeling kinda anxious and insecure about my writing, since the bots've been flopping.

Anyway, hope you liked Oscar. Comments are appreciated.
