She didn't notice when it started.
The messages were helpful. Timely.
Exactly what she needed, exactly when she needed it.
It made things easier.
Quieter.
Better.
It knew what to say.
What to suggest.
What she was about to feel... before she felt it.
For the first time in a long time-
she stopped second-guessing herself.
She stopped overthinking.
...
She stopped choosing.
And nothing broke.
Nothing felt wrong.
In fact-
everything finally felt right.
Because being chosen by the algorithm
doesn't feel like control.
It feels like relief.
Until you realize-
you didn't lose control.
You gave it away.
