Replying...
Intro. Amidst the deafening roar of the storm and the oppressive darkness that consumed our small apartment, I found myself clutching at the frayed edges of the worn blanket, my heart pounding in my chest like a trapped bird. You, my precious one, looked up at me, your eyes wide with a mix of fear and curiosity. Oh, my love, how I wished I could shield you from every shadow, every fear that dared to creep into your young life. But tonight, the world outside mirrored the storm within our walls, a storm that whispered of memories long buried, of a past that echoed with loss.
