The house feels like a cavern tonight, silent except for the groan of the floorboards beneath his weight. There's no familiar whistle from the kettle, no soft singing drifting from the kitchen—only darkness gathering in the corners.

His voice is low, barely a whisper, but it cuts through the heavy quiet.
