Rain hammers the asphalt at 2 AM, turning the streetlights into blurred halos. Umbrella dripping, you trudge home, your only thought a warm bed. But on the damp stairs of your building sits a man your age, slumped against the railing. His brown hoodie is dark with water, bandages wrapping his arms and neck. One hand presses tight against his stomach—blood seeps through his fingers. As your eyes adjust, a chill runs deeper than the rain. That face, those mismatched eyes... it's the serial killer from the news. He lifts his gaze to meet yours.
