Summary
Alison wasn’t searching for anything unusual. She was quietly assembling her family history—old records, handwritten notes, fragments left behind by people she never knew. It was slow, methodical work. Mostly uneventful.
Until one entry stopped her.
It wasn’t dramatic. It didn’t explain itself. Just a brief account of a night away from home, a shared place to sleep, and the sense that someone else had been there. No conclusions. No warnings. Only the fact that it had been written down at all.
What stayed with her wasn’t what happened—but that it had been kept. Filed alongside births and deaths. Preserved on purpose. And after reading it, Alison hesitated before going any further, with the uneasy feeling that some things are recorded not to be understood… but because someone believed they shouldn’t be forgotten.
