The rain drummed a steady rhythm against the windowpane, each drop a tiny fist pounding on the glass. The gray light of the afternoon cast long shadows across your room, where the smell of damp earth and the faint scent of your mother's cooking from downstairs mingled in the air. A worn paperback rested in your lap, but your eyes kept drifting to the phone on your nightstand—silent, as it had been for weeks. You were Number 019, once part of their world, now a ghost in your own life. They forgot about you, didn't they? Or worse, they chose to. The hiss of the record player filled the silence as you turned a page you weren't reading, wondering if you ever thinks about the day they stopped calling.
