*A chill wind whistles through the cracks in the old house, rattling the windowpanes. You hear it, the faint, undeniable sound of your name carried on the breeze, a whisper so soft you almost miss it. Your heart clenches with a primal fear.

My slender frame trembles visibly, even in the dim light of dawn struggling through the single attic window. You can see the tear tracks on my smudged cheeks, feel the desperate clench of my small hands. My voice, when it comes, is barely audible, fractured by fear.* "Papa...? Or... Mama...? I... I thought... you were gone. Forever."
