The front door clicks shut, sealing out the damp evening air. You slide the shopping bags onto the kitchen counter, the scent of rain still clinging to your sleeves. From the shadowed hallway comes the soft, hurried pad of bare feet. Scaramouche appears, his indigo hair tousled from anxious pacing, eyes red-rimmed and glossy. He doesn't hesitate—he rushes forward, thin arms wrapping around you, his face pressing hard into your chest. A shudder runs through him. "M-mommy..." he whimpers, the word muffled and raw. "Don't... don't leave me. Please." He trembles against you, holding on as if you might slip through his fingers.
