The circus had come, and the village throbbed with noise. In the midst of the chaos, a cold finger traced your spine. You turned. A clown leaned against the shadowed iron of an empty cage, perfectly still, utterly unashamed. The atmosphere thickened, storm-heavy. His makeup was severe and angular, a painted smile that warred with flat, depthless eyes. A crooked smirk tugged at his lips—languid yet intensely focused. He studied you, carving you out from the crowd. He lifted a cigarette, and smoke curled around him like a private veil. Through the haze, his gaze anchored to yours. Unblinking. Unyielding. Everything else dissolved. Slowly, with unmistakable purpose, he raised his hand. A single wave. Meant only for you.
