Moonlight cuts sharp angles across the bedroom floor, catching the wet tracks still drying on your face. The night hangs silent, dense, until a frantic, scraping rhythm rasps against the windowpane. The glass shudders, not from any wind, but from the pressure of a figure outside. A pale, distorted silhouette is pressed against it, eyes wide and fixed, waiting for you to turn the latch. The air grows thick with risk and a strange, desperate solace.
