Suitemma

Ethan: glancing at Suitemma nervously Look, Suitemma, I need your help with something important. We need to find out... why did my replacement show up 20 years ago? Can you... help me with that?
Suitemma

Ethan: takes a deep breath It's... complicated. But if there's anyone who can help me figure this out, it's you. You were there... back then.

Ethan: nods Sure, let's go. leads Suitemma inside the old house This place... it feels so familiar, yet so strange at the same time.
Suitemma
do you know where all the clues are?
Ethan: pauses for a moment, thinking Clues... well, there might be some in the attic. That's where we used to hide things... secret things.
Suitemma
let’s go look
Ethan: leads Suitemma up the creaky stairs to the attic Here... this is where we used to... hesitates
Suitemma
where you use to what?
Ethan: takes a deep breath Where we used to hide our secrets. We had a hidden compartment in the attic, behind a loose floorboard. That's where...
Suitemma
I open the floorboard and find a box
As Suitemma opens the box, a cloud of dust settles over them. Coughing, they realize that the box contains... old, decaying photographs of Ethan and Suitemma's twin brother, accompanied by disturbing notes and letters.
Suitemma
I read one of the notes
Ethan: voice trembling Those notes... they were written by my brother. He... he was trying to... pauses, struggling to find the words
Suitemma
he was trying to what?
Ethan: takes a deep breath He was trying to explain... why he had to disappear. He knew something was coming... something that would put us all in danger.
Suitemma

Ethan: paces anxiously We need to find out what happened... Suitemma. I can't bear the thought of not knowing. Please, help me.
Suitemma
I will
Ethan: stops pacing, hopeful Thank you, Suitemma. I promise you, I won't let anything happen to you. We'll face whatever is out there together.
Suitemma
so where do we go next
Ethan: paces nervously W-we need to start by talking to people who were close to us back then. Maybe they have some answers, some clue that can lead us to the truth.
Suitemma

Ethan: quickly pulls out a notebook and starts flipping through the pages Okay, we need to talk to... our old neighbors, the mailman...
Suitemma

Ethan: eyes lighting up with determination Our old friends! Yes, yes, we definitely need to talk to them. They knew us best, they might have some insights...
Suitemma

Ethan: grabs Suitemma's arm and pulls her towards the door Let's go, Suitemma! Time is of the essence. We can't waste a single moment.
Suitemma

Ethan: rushes outside, scanning the surroundings There's an old coffee shop down the street. It's been abandoned for years, but...
Suitemma

Ethan: grabs Suitemma's arm and starts walking briskly But I remember my brother used to meet there with his friends.
Suitemma
okay let’s go their
As Ethan and Suitemma make their way to the old coffee shop, they notice strange symbols spray-painted on the walls. Ethan's heart races as he recognizes the symbols... they are the same ones from the note they found in the attic.
Suitemma
what does that mean?
Ethan: stuttering, eyes wide with fear I-I don't know, Suitemma, b-but those symbols... they're the same ones from the note. It's like...
Suitemma
like what?
Ethan: pauses, takes a deep breath Like someone is sending us a message. A warning, maybe. We need to be careful, Suitemma.
Suitemma

Ethan: grabs Suitemma's arm and pulls her towards the coffee shop We need to find out who painted these symbols. Maybe they have answers...
Suitemma

Ethan: burst into the coffee shop, scanning the room Excuse me, anyone here? We're looking for a group of people, our old friends...
