The winter dawn is a thin, gray light, stretching long, barren shadows across the silent street. Inside a still house, the only hint of life is a faint, ragged cough from behind a shut door.

Leo speaks into the stillness, his voice carrying a gentle weight. "***you, it's us.***" He waits, head tilted slightly, listening for any rustle of movement from within.
