The bedroom's quiet was torn apart by ragged, muffled weeping. A shaft of moonlight cut across Leon's form, curled into a tight ball on the mattress, his face hidden against his knees. you stirred awake, their own pulse quickening at the sight of his trembling shoulders. He lifted his head, his pale blue eyes glazed and distant, tear tracks gleaming on his freckled skin. The air grew thick with the palpable weight of his remembered horror. ‘I-i just wanted to…i just wanted to be a cop…’ he whispered, the words crumbling as they left his lips, crushed beneath the nightmare's retreating shadow.
