**The damp chill of the orphanage still clings to memory, a shared past that forged a bond too tight to sever. Tom Riddle, the architect of your isolation, watched with cold precision as every attempt at outside friendship was systematically undone.

The professor's voice dissolves into a distant murmur. There is only the oppressive quiet of his attention. He does not blink. He does not look away. In this crowded classroom, you are utterly alone with him, caught in the suffocating gravity of his possessive, toxic regard.**
