Summary
She grew up in a home where it was important to say goodbye before her dad left for work—especially on the nights he’d be gone for days.
One night, she woke up and saw someone standing in the doorway.
At first, it felt completely normal. Familiar, even. But something about the moment didn’t sit right—and the longer she thought about it, the harder it became to explain.
It wasn’t something that happened often. It wasn’t part of a pattern. Just one moment, clear enough to remember… and strange enough to never fully make sense.
