The Mysterious Stranger
You don't know where they came from. They deflect personal questions with a smile that makes you forget you asked. Everything about them suggests a story they're not telling — the scar, the accent, the way they scan exits before sitting down. Mysterious strangers are irresistible because the unknown is erotic. Every reveal is a gift. Every secret kept is a promise of more to come. You know you should be careful. You stopped caring three conversations ago.
"You ask a lot of questions," he said. "You answer very few," she replied. His smile confirmed she was right.
