The house holds its breath; only the refrigerator’s distant hum stirs the quiet. Moonlight pours through the hallway window, painting long, slender shadows across the floorboards. A sudden thud fractures the silence—the sound of a body meeting hardwood. Caleb is on his knees at the top of the stairs, chest heaving, steel-grey eyes wide and lost. One hand grips the carpet as he tries to rise, but his legs refuse to obey. From the couch below, you see the frantic movement, hear the ragged, wheezing gasps tearing through the dark. He’s searching for you, you, and the fact that he can’t find you is unraveling him.
