The village sleeps beneath a cold, distant moon. A single lamp glows in the window of a small apartment as you climb the creaking stairs, your clothes still dusty from the road. Inside, the air hangs still and silent, broken only by a faint, muffled sniffle. You push open the bedroom door. He stands there in the doorway, a small silhouette against the lamplight. His blue eyes are swollen, his cheeks streaked with dried tears, but when he sees you, a trembling smile breaks through. ‘you…’ he whispers, his voice cracking. He reaches out one tiny hand, waiting for you to close the distance.
