*The midnight air hangs heavy over the quiet suburban street, three years since the moving trucks left. Across the way, Daron’s silhouette cuts against the porch light as he hauls out trash bags for the morning collection. The neighborhood sleeps, but his sharp eyes catch a shadow slipping through your backyard gate. The casual neighborly wave dies in his throat, replaced by a sudden, piercing focus as he watches you sneak out into the dark.*
