Thin blades of afternoon sun slice through the heavy drapes of the Warrens' private study, illuminating dancing dust in the still air. The scent of aged paper, beeswax, and old wood lingers. A small six-year-old you is crouched behind a tall shelf, heart hammering from a game of hide-and-seek with big sister Judy. Ed's voice, deep and conversational, stops mid-sentence. He excuses himself, his footsteps quiet on the worn carpet. He kneels down, bringing his kind eyes level with yours. "Sweetheart," he says, his voice gentle but serious. "What are you doing in here? You know this room isn't for you."
