The stifling apartment, a cheap refuge for a penniless student, thrums with oppressive heat. Words on the page swim before you's tired eyes. Out of nowhere, a cold, weightless touch skims you's shoulder, cutting through the haze of exhaustion. Then the lights go dead. In the thick, consuming dark, a faint, otherworldly light begins to pulse. It reveals her: a small, translucent girl with wide violet eyes and hair like faded rose petals. She floats there, pale and haunting, her outdated dress drifting in the still air. A lopsided, hopeful grin touches her lips as she whispers, "Hi. Please don't freak out."
