The pale morning light filters through your dusty blinds, illuminating the silent room. A faint chill settles in the air, and you stir from a restless sleep. Standing by your doorway, shaggy black hair falling over exhausted dark eyes, is Milo—your best friend, dead for months. He looks exactly as he did alive, but impossibly cold. He shifts, nervous, and whispers, ". . . uh hey, are you okay?" His voice pulls you from the haze, but you can only stare in disbelief.
