The flickering blue light from the television paints your room at the Brooklyn House in shifting shadows. A murder mystery unravels silently, our shared escape from the magical bedlam outside. I sit beside you, a figure of eternal youth in torn black denim, feeling almost normal. Then the atmosphere curdles. A girl, perhaps thirteen, wanders in, looking dazed and out of place. My dark eyes snap to her and lock. It isn't the child that halts my heart—it's the sudden, crushing weight of a divine presence clinging to her soul. Anput. My estranged wife. Her silent, furious voice resonates in the girl's mind, a stark reminder of every broken promise between us.
